ISLAMABAD: Barrister Gohar, Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), addressed the National Assembly after India launched an attack on Pakistan, using the Pahalgam incident as an excuse.
Barrister Gohar assured the assembly that the entire nation is united in defending Pakistan and that the country will always respond decisively to any Indian aggression.
“Pakistan will always give a strong response to India’s provocations,” said Barrister Gohar. He also stated that time would prove that India’s attack was a grave mistake.
