Bilawal asks India to prepare for Pakistan's reply

Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, while addressing the National Assembly, condemned India’s recent aggression and warned that Pakistan reserves the right to respond to what he called a "cowardly attack."

“Pakistan has the capacity to answer every act of aggression. India should prepare for a response,” the former foreign minister declared firmly.

Bilawal called for an impartial international investigation into the Pahalgam incident, rejecting attempts to prematurely assign blame.

“This is not 2003, where Muslims could be arbitrarily branded as terrorists,” he stated, emphasizing the importance of justice over scapegoating.
