Pakistan’s oldest rival, India, conducts firing on the LoC (Line of Control) over and over, which always ends up suffering persecution and death of our young soldiers. This was not enough, and India began a zero-sum game over Kashmir by taking it under threat and brutally attacking the unarmed Kashmiris.

Indubitably, none of them attained this success effortlessly. At the end of the day, a path is just an option, and yes, it is one of the ways forward.
