Pakistan Army Chief Bajwa calls for 'peaceful' resolution of J&K issue with India

Islamabad: In a shift in tone, Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa has called for resolution of the issue of Jammu and Kashmir "in a dignified and peaceful manner".

Amid strained ties with New Delhi, General Bajwa on Tuesday was quoted as saying by ANI that Pakistan is "a peace-loving country that has rendered great sacrifices for regional and global peace."

During a graduation ceremony at a Pakistan Air Force Academy, General Bajwa stated that Islamabad is "firmly committed to the ideal of mutual respect and peaceful co-existence" and that "it is time to extend peace in all directions".

"We stand firmly committed to the ideal of mutual respect and peaceful co-existence. It is time to extend the hand of peace in all directions. Pakistan and India must also resolve the longstanding issue of Jammu and Kashmir in a dignified and peaceful manner," he was quoted as saying by ANI.

Relations between India and Pakistan had reached new lows in recent years, especially after India abrogated Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir in 2019 and in the wake of terror attacks like the one in Pulwama the same year orchestrated from across the border.
