The Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Raheel Sharif on Thursday termed India’s claim of surigcal strike as a ‘drma’ and stated that India knows nothing about surgical strike.
“If Pakistan conducted a surgical strike, it would become part of Indian textbooks, said the Pakistan Army Chief while speaking to people of Khyber Agency.
The army chief, as quoted Dawn.com said, “Pakistan Army is the strongest force against terrorism”.
“They have eliminated terrorism from Pakistan’s tribal areas,” he said.
“I kept the morale of Pakistan Army up in my time, but I will hand over the reigns to the next chief on Nov 29,” he told members of the jirga.
“We have fought the menace of terrorism together over the years,” the army chief said. “It has woven us eternally in an unbreakable bond.”
“I hope that the relationship between the army and the nation will continue, even after I say goodbye to the Pakistan Army,” he said.
Talking about his post-retirement plans, he said he would like to dedicate his life for the welfare of the families of slain soldiers.
The COAS is set to retire Nov 29 and is spending his last week as army chief on farewell visits around the country.
