COAS visits Command and Staff College Quetta  Sheds light on India’s increasingly dangerous propensity to use unprovoked military aggression against Pakistan  Says Pakistan will never be coerced.

ISLAMABAD  -  Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, NI (M), the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) visited Command and Staff Col-lege Quetta on Friday and addressed student officers and faculty of the Command and Staff College.

According to a press release issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), COAS paid tribute to the Shuhada of Operation ‘Bunyanum Marsoos’ and expressed complete solidarity with their family mem-bers.

COAS stated that under the national leadership, the people of Pakistan became a wall of steel for the De-fence of the motherland. Praising professionalism of the Armed Forces, the COAS reiterated that success of ‘Ma’arka-e-Haq’ is a testimony to our national resolve, and complete synergy among all elements of na-tional power.

Commenting on global and regional environment, the COAS shed light on the character of emerging con-flict, with particular emphasis on India’s increasingly dangerous propensity to use unprovoked military ag-gression against Pakistan. While reiterating the resolve to defeat any aggression and ability to deal with threats across the entire conflict spectrum, the COAS asserted that Pakistan will never be coerced and inimical designs to distract Pakistan’s efforts against war on terrorism will be comprehensively defeated. For strategic stability of South Asia, the COAS emphasised the need for peaceful resolution of longstand-ing internationally recognized Kashmir dispute, and warned against the unlawful and legally untenable ‘hy-dro terrorism’ by India.

Highlighting Indian state’s role in sponsoring terrorism inside Pakistan, the COAS commented on the rein-vigorated counter terrorism drive and expressed confidence that nation’s fight against terrorism will be driv-en to a logical conclusion - success against all forms and manifestations of terrorism.

Talking about leadership, the Field Marshal advised the student officers to fulfill their obligations with ut-most dedication, passion and resolve. Emphasizing the need for innovative thinking and research, he laud-ed the Command & Staff College Quetta for grooming future military leaders who uphold the highest stand-ards of this sacred profession. “Training must reflect not only the current realities but also prepare us for the future battlefield, one that demands agility, innovation, and unwavering resolve,” he remarked.

Earlier on arrival at Quetta, the Field Marshal was received by Commander Quetta Corps and Commandant Command and Staff College Quetta.
