While emphasising that the young generation of Pakistan should be constantly reminded of the country’s history, Army Chief General Asim Munir said that Hindus are “different” from Pakistanis and that this is “where the foundation of the two-nation theory was laid. We are two nations, we are not one nation”

Pakistan’s Army Chief General Asim Munir floated the two-nation theory and stressed that India and Pakistan are two different countries, as he delivered a provocative speech at the  Overseas Pakistanis Convention in Islamabad.

Addressing the public on Wednesday, Munir said that the people of Pakistan are different from Hindus in terms of their culture, ambition, ideologies, etc.

“You have to narrate Pakistan’s story to your children so that they don’t forget it when our forefathers thought we were different from Hindus in every possible aspect of life. Our religion is different, our customs are different, our traditions are different, our thoughts are different, our ambitions are different, that’s where the foundation of the two-nation theory was laid. We are two nations, we are not one nation," the army general said.

He reiterated that Pakistanis should not forget the “story of Pakistan”, how it was formed, and the sacrifices made by its forefathers, “so that their bond with Pakistan never weakens, whether it is the third generation, or the fourth generation, or the fifth generation, they know what Pakistan is for them.”

‘Will beat the hell out of terrorists’

Earlier this week, three policemen were killed and 18 others injured when an improvised explosive device (IED) hit a constabulary vehicle in the restive Balochistan province of Pakistan.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif strongly condemned the attack and directed authorities to ensure immediate medical treatment for the injured.

Sharif vowed to continue the fight against terrorism and said: “We will thwart the nefarious designs of terrorists, who are enemies of humanity. Our war against terrorism will persist until this menace is completely eradicated from the country.”

Talking about the Balochistan attacks, General Munir said, “We will beat the hell out of these terrorists very soon. You think, these 1,500 terrorists, belonging to Balochistan Liberation Army, Balochistan Liberation Front and Balochistan Republican Army, etc, can take away Balochistan from us?”

Balochistan has been witnessing violence for about two decades by ethnic Baloch groups who are fighting for greater control over the mineral resources of the province.
