In a special message issued on Friday, the provincial minister said May 10, 2025, would forever be remembered in golden words in the nation’s history, as Pakistan’s armed forces successfully defeated the enemy’s aggression and shattered what he termed the arrogance of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the global hype surrounding Rafale fighter jets.

He emphasized that the people of Pakistan have always rendered unmatched sacrifices for the defense of the homeland and continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with the armed forces. According to him, the victory of Marka-e-Haq sent a clear message to the world that Pakistan would never compromise on its sovereignty, territorial integrity, or national dignity.

Syed Nasir Hussain Shah said the sacrifices of martyrs and war veterans remain the nation’s greatest pride and must always be remembered with honor and respect. He added that the victory has become a symbol of courage, patriotism, and unity for future generations, urging the youth to further strengthen the spirit of discipline, harmony, and love for the country.

He reiterated that Pakistan is a peace-loving nation but warned that no compromise can ever be made on the defense and security of the motherland. He further said that the collective strength, unity, and patriotism of the Pakistani people have always defeated hostile designs against the country.
