Pakistani leaders shared the stage with Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) militants during an event in Pakistan's Punjab province, highlighting the deep ties between the Pakistan government and the militants. The leaders welcomed the terrorists respectfully and made anti-India speeches, which raised questions about Pakistan's pro-terror policy.
An alarming incident has unfolded in the Kasur district of Pakistan's Punjab province, underscoring the close ties between the Pakistani government and the terrorist group Lashkar-e-Taiba. Authentic images and videos have come to light, shedding light on Pakistan's stance on terrorism.
Pakistan's Food Minister Malik Rashid Ahmed Khan and Punjab Assembly Speaker Malik Muhammad Ahmed Khan, both known to be allies of Shehbaz Sharif and Maryam Nawaz, were present at the event. They were observed on the Lashkar stage alongside infamous terrorists such as Amir Hamza and Saifullah Kasuri.
'Terrorists are respectfully welcomed'
The most astonishing aspect of this program was that Pakistani leaders personally took to the stage to greet the terrorists. They not only embraced Saifullah Kasuri and Talha Saeed, the son of Hafiz Saeed, but also attempted to convey to them the 'identity' of the nation.
Anti-India Speech and Praise of Terror
The addresses delivered from this stage not only expressed hostility towards India but also attempted to portray the terrorists as champions. Food Minister Malik Rashid mentioned that 240 million Pakistanis have now embraced the beliefs of individuals like Saifullah Kasuri and Hafiz Saeed. Additionally, it was declared that a government position would be offered to the brother of Commander Mudassir, who was killed during India's operations against Lashkar's bases.
Saifullah Kasuri was called a "hero"
Malik Mohammad Ahmed Khan referred to Saifullah Kasuri as a 'hero' and disclosed his personal ties with Hafiz Saeed's family, indicating that the Pakistani government is now openly backing terrorism.
Slogans raised in support of Khalistan
During the event, Lashkar co-founder Amir Hamza made his intentions clear against India by raising slogans of 'Khalistan Zindabad' from the stage. This further highlights the deeper links between the ISI and LeT. Saifullah Kasuri, who is believed to be the mastermind of the Pahalgam attack, also gave a provocative speech against India from the stage.
As the event concluded, Kasuri expressed gratitude to Pakistani leaders by name in public, prompting the security team on stage to signal the cessation of video recording. This indicates that while the government backs the terrorists, it attempts to conceal this support because of global scrutiny.
