Baloch leader warns Munir: Baloch leader Sardar Akhtar Mangal has now given him a direct and sharp reply after Baloch leader Sardar Akhtar Mangal has given him a straightforward and sharp reply following threats to separatists in Balochistan amid tension in India-Pakistan relations. Mangal gave a clear warning to the Pakistani Army of its derogatory defeat in the 1971 Indo-Pak war, “Don’t forget Bangladesh!”
Munir’s Baloch’s poisonous criticism
Last month, General Munir targeted the separatist groups of Balochistan in his speech at the Pakistani delegation conference in Islamabad. He had said, “Balochistan remains a fork for Pakistan. You 1500 people are saying that we will separate it from Pakistan, but your next ten generations will not be able to do so.” After this, he said in a threatening tone, “We will do something that will remember 10 generations of Balochistan.”
Mangal’s sharp answer, “Remember Bangladesh”
Balochistan National Party leader and former Pakistani MP Sardar Akhtar Mangal gave a befitting reply to General Munir at a public rally. He reminded the Pakistani Army of its derogatory defeat in the 1971 war with India and the surrender of 90,000 soldiers.
“General Munir sir, you threaten Baloch, but we have been remembering all your atrocities for 75 years. But have you forgotten 1971? Remember what Bengalis did with you in Bangladesh… and your next ten generations should also be remembered,” Magal said clearly.
“Even pants were hanging” – shameful history
Referring to the Pakistani army defeat further, Mangal further said, “There is no example in any war in the world where 90,000 soldiers have come together and put up arms, but your army did this. Not only that, but even today people say that at that time not only the weapon but also their pants were hanging.” Mengel appealed to General Munir to “Write this history in your military textbooks so that your future generations can remember this insult.”
Government fraud also exposed
Mangal also criticized the false propaganda of the Pakistani government. “Pakistan had lost the war, but government TVs and radio were saying that they have captured some areas of India. How long will we tolerate such deception?” He raised this question.
Battle -like twist on Baloch issue?
The toxic comment by General Aseem Munir is likely to increase in Balochistan and increase in dissatisfaction. Mangal’s response is not only an expression of Baloch dissatisfaction, but also protest against Pakistan’s military harassment. Balochistan’s voice is becoming more vocal in the backdrop of tension with India and it can become a new headache for the Pakistani army. If Pakistan tries to settle the Baloch issue through repression, history can repeat itself – which will save nothing but shame and defeat.
