Gen. Asim Munir, the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), has urged the youth to resist falling for propaganda on social media that seeks to sow discord and hopelessness throughout the nation. In the absence of “positive thinking and research,” he added, society remained chaotic and it was necessary to confirm the news that was circulated on social media. He restated that no compromise will be made on Pakistan’s sovereignty and that the Pakistan Army was prepared to handle any threats and conspiracies, both external and internal. He emphasised that the goal of Pakistan’s creation was to demonstrate how our religion, civilization, and culture differed entirely from those of Hindus, not to embrace Western civilization and culture.
