‘Second line of defense’: Pakistan Defense Minister Khwaja Asif indicated to deploy Madrasa students in the war of war

New Delhi: In another bizarre statement so far, Pakistan’s Defense Minister Khwaja Asif has claimed that if the war with India is broken, the madrasa students will serve as the second line of defense of Pakistan.Addressing Parliament, Asif said that students of Madrasa will be deployed if needed.“As far as Madrasa and their students are concerned, there is no doubt that they are the second line of our defense,” said Asif.
He said, “The youth who study there are well associated with religion … they can be used 100% for the city or for other needs,” he saidIt comes a day later when Asif blamed the Indian drone from the failure of Pakistan’s armed forces. He claimed that Pakistani forces deliberately avoided engagement to prevent the enemy from disclosing strategic military positions.“The drone attack that took place yesterday, originally done to detect our places. This is a technical case that I will not explain in detail,” said Asif.“And that’s why they were not intercepted – so that our locations are not leaked,” he said.Before Asif had faced criticism to fail to provide reliable evidence, supporting his claim that Pakistan had shot five Indian jets during India’s Operation Sindoor. Pressure for details during an interview, Asif quoted “social media” as his source – a rapid rebuke from a CNN anchor, who reminded him that social media was not a reliable basis for military claims.“This is on social media – on Indian social media, not on us. The debris of these jets fell in Kashmir,” said Asif.When further questioned the military systems allegedly used in the aircraft downing, Asif sidelined the issue by mentioning Pakistan’s fleet of Chinese -made aircraft including JF -17 and JF -10 jets.“We have Chinese aircraft-JF-17 and JF-10. They are Chinese aircraft, but they are now gathered and built in Pakistan. We have a facility for this for this. If India can buy aircraft from France and use them, we can buy and use aircraft from China, Russia, United States or UK, “he said.Islamabad on Saturday carried out the Indian accurate strike on the military goals identified in Pakistan after removing several high-speed missiles at Indian airports.The Border Security Force also destroyed Loni of a terrorist launch pad Sialkot after starting unsafe firing in BSF posts in Jammu sector.“After deliberately targeted airports, Pakistan, the Indian Armed Forces took a quick and well -employed planned action and targeted the technical installation, command and control centers, radar sites and arms shops.
