ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday stated that Pakistan delivered an unforgettable lesson to the Modi government during the Pakistan-India conflict. Speaking at a ceremony at the University of Haripur to inaugurate the PM’s Laptop Scheme 2025 in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), he praised the resilience of the Pakistani armed forces and the nation’s unwavering support.

The premier referred to the conflict as “Marka-e-Haq” or the Battle of Truth, stating that Pakistan achieved victory with the prayers and support of its people. He claimed that India, from Delhi to Mumbai, would never forget this defeat. The confrontation in May erupted after India launched an unprovoked attack following the killing of 26 tourists in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), which New Delhi blamed on Pakistan — a charge Islamabad denied, calling for a neutral investigation.
6 اور 10 مئی کے دوران افواجِ پاکستان نے مودی سرکار کو ایسا سبق سکھایا گیا جو زندگی بھر نہیں بھولے گا۔ دلی سے بمبئی تک، اور بنگال سے گجرات تک ہندوستان یہ شکست فراموش نہیں کرسکے گا۔
