Lieutenant General Ghulam Mustafa (retd) said that Pakistan Army and the nation were full of spirit and their passion led to the success in 1965 war.

He said that Pakistan Air Force and Pakistan Navy also taught a memorable lesson to India in the air and the sea.
Brigadier Aslam Ghuman (retd) said that Hindu was a coward nation and Indian Army did not have the courage to face us in the battlefield. He said that Hindus could only hatch conspiracies. He said our people tied bombs to their chests and attacked Indian tanks at Sialkot front. He said that corruption had wrecked havoc to our system and society and we must focus on character building of our nation. Brigadier Taimur Khan (retd) said that India had learnt a lesson in the 1965 war that it could not defeat Pakistan in the battlefield.
