Punjab Governor Chaudhry Mohammad Sarwar has said that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has brought about his own destruction by committing "Himalayan blunder" of introducing controversial citizenship law and imposing curfew in the Indian Occupied Kashmir.

"We do not want war but peace with India, which cannot be possible without settling the Kashmir issue and if India wages a war, it will be the last war in the region," he said while addressing a meeting with Command and Staff College Quetta delegation comprising army officers from China, South Korea, Iran, Saudi Arab, Iraq, Palestine, United Arab Emirates, Maldives, Sudan and other foreign countries here on Monday.

According to him, 220 million people are standing beside the Pakistan Army and the nation is proud of its armed forces. Every Pakistani is ready to render his life in defense of the motherland. Pakistan wants peace not only in the region but also in the entire world and there is no precedence of sacrifices in the world as much has been rendered by Pakistan for establishment of peace. Peace is the first priority of Pakistan even today.

He said that the whole nation salutes to army men defending frontiers of the country and it is stood by them. "Besides Pakistan Armed Force and other security agencies, people of Pakistan have also rendered unprecedented sacrifices in the war against terrorism and restoration of peace. Today Pakistan commands world's confidence that gave boost to foreign investment and promoted tourism, and Pakistan is now advancing successfully in the field of economy and stabilizing by all aspects," he added.

He said that the agenda of anti-state elements that destabilized Pakistan will be foiled at all costs. "Prime Minister Imran Khan has ensured complete freedom to all minorities living in Pakistan, while Kartarpur Corridor Project is the proof of Pakistan's affection with minorities," he added.

He said that Balochistan is the future of Pakistan, adding that strengthening and prosperity of Balochistan is indispensable if we have to strengthen Pakistan. "It is need of the hour the Muslim Ummah must get united because when we will unite then Kashmir and Palestine issues can be settled down.

Sarwar underscored the importance of training courses for improving professional skills and said that training programmes in consonant with needs of modern era enhance professional skills of the officers. "It is foremost priority of present government to ensure provision of health, education, employment and other life amenities to the people at their doorstep.

In this connection, a comprehensive program 'Ehsas' has been launched to eradicate poverty. Under this initiative, poor, needy and helpless people are being provided with basic facilities.

The PTI took over the government in very difficult and complicated economic conditions, and after stabilizing the economy, the government is now focused on provision of relief to the masses, while all possible administrative measures are being put in order to control price-hike," he said. The PTI has adopted a candid policy for elimination of corruption and good governance, and there will be no compromise on it, he added.
