Rawalpindi (Staff Report): Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director-General Major General Asif Ghafoor on Wednesday said that Pakistan army and air force had no option but to respond after India’s air incursion.
“Pakistan’s armed forces have the capability, capacity, will and the nation’s support – but we do not want to be irresponsible,” DG ISPR said while addressing a press conference.
“But how should one respond? The way India acted or should we show responsibility? When God gives you the capability and capacity to respond, there is an element of gratefulness. It is to be used for self-defence rather than attack.”
