Pakistani service has dismissed as “intellectually affronting” and “delusional” an Indian military general’s trouble to seize Pakistan- administered Kashmir.
The Pakistan service’s media sect, Inter-Services Public Relations(ISPR), issued a statement on Thursday slamming the commentary of the Indian army’s Lieutenant General Upendra Dwivedi, who on Tuesday said the “Indian army is ready to execute orders” to take the portion of Kashmir under Pakistan’s administration.
Dwivedi’s “lofty claims and surreal ambition, is intellectually insulting,” ISPR said.
Dwivedi, who heads the northern command of the Indian army, was responding to Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh’s statement last month that India would attack and take the Pakistani side of Kashmir.
“As far as the Indian army is concerned, it’ll carry out any order given by the Government of India. Whenever similar orders are given, we will always be ready for it,” Dwivedi was quoted as saying by Indian broadcaster NDTV.
Pakistani service said, “the unwarranted statement of a high-ranking Indian army officer concerning Azad Jammu and Kashmir is an apt incarnation of Indian Armed Forces’ delusional mindset and showcases the pictorial imprint of domestic political showboating on Indian military study.”

‘Irresponsible rhetoric’
The ISPR said it was an attempt to “divert attention from the Indian army’s cathartic use of force and gross mortal rights violations against innocent, unarmed Kashmiris seeking for their right of tone- determination.”
The Pakistani service said it’s a force for good and a supporter of indigenous peace and stability, advising its desire for peace is matched by its capability and readiness to “baffle any adversity or aggression against our home, an assertion exhaustively validated on multitudinous occasions, most lately in the Balakot occasion.”
“In the interest of peace for the region, the Indian service would do well to hesitate from reckless rhetoric and truculent communication to shore up electoral support for their political masters’ accumulative testament,” the Pakistani army said, pertaining to the right-sect government in India led by PM Narendra Modi.

Heavily militarised region
Kashmir, split between Pakistan and India, has been claimed by both sides in wholeness since British rule of the key ended 75 times agone and Pakistan and India were born.
Revolutionists in the India-administered portion of Kashmir have been fighting New Delhi’s rule since 1989.
Utmost Muslim Kashmiris support the revolutionists’ thing of uniting the home, either under Pakistani rule or as an independent country.
India calls the Himalayan region an “integral part” of its nation and is against holding an UN-backed plebiscite there. Pakistan sees Kashmir as an untreated business of partition and its “jugular tone.”
India-administered Kashmir remains one of the world’s most militarised regions, where India has stationed further than 50,000 troops.
Knockouts of thousands, substantially civilians, have lost their lives in decades of conflict.
