During the 264th Corps Commanders’ Conference, Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Syed Asim Munir expressed concern about malicious propaganda against armed forces on social media.
He promised to take strong action against anyone trying to divide the nation and the security forces by making false accusations. The forum honoured the brave sacrifices of martyrs, including officers, soldiers, and citizens who gave their lives for peace and stability in the country, along with law enforcement agencies.
“Unfounded and baseless allegations against law enforcement agencies and security forces have become a fashion and are part of the larger design to drive a wedge between the people and the Armed Forces of Pakistan,” the forum noted.
“We will not allow such efforts to succeed, and as per the law and constitution, stern action will be ensured,” the forum vowed.
General Asim Munir showed commitment to fully support the government on economic and social progress. He also promised to help the government tackle illegal activities like smuggling, hoarding, and electricity theft, as well as ensure the safe return of all illegal foreigners.
The Army chief also praised army officers and law enforcement agencies for their efforts in stopping terrorist attacks and eliminating multiple terrorists during ongoing counterterrorism operations.
