Senator Faisal Vawda has endorsed the stance, outlined by DG ISPR Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, saying the state had delivered an unequivocal message to what he termed ‘internal and external enemies’.<\/p>\n

His remarks came on Friday after the DG ISPR sharply criticised incarcerated former prime minister Imran Khan, terming him a ‘threat to national security’ and cautioning that no one would be allowed to incite public against the armed forces.<\/p>\n

In a statement posted on X, Vawda said he had repeatedly warned that the state would ‘firmly answer’ those targeting national institutions. \u201cI had said that the state would respond decisively to the questions raised by enemies at home and abroad,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

\n\u2014 Faisal Vawda Senator (Indep) (@FaisalVawdaPAK) December 5, 2025<\/p>\n

Referring to criticism directed at the armed forces and the army chief, the senator said the government\u2019s latest measures had exceeded what he had earlier cautioned. \u201cI had said that anyone attacking the army or its chief would have their tongue turned into a shoe sole. But the state\u2019s response has made it clear that even a shoe sole is a very small thing in comparison,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n

Vawda said the authorities had now taken a definitive position against individuals or groups promoting narratives against the country or its military. \u201cThe state has clearly said that those who stand against Pakistan and its army are carrying the enemy\u2019s narrative \u2014 and that falls under treason,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In a pointed political attack, he added that while his ‘political father’ had once been the prime minister, ‘those who are now without leadership have a father who is in jail and has been placed in the category of treason’.<\/p>\n

He accused the PTI of working ‘in coordination with India and Afghanistan’, reiterating allegations, he said, he had been making for months. \u201cThe state has declared, in simple and clear language, that those acting as enemies, terrorists, or destabilisers are now declared traitors,\u201d he said. \u201cPakistan will no longer tolerate any abusive talk about the state, the army, or the army chief.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vawda further claimed, he had previously predicted a series of steps \u2014 including bans, disqualifications, governor\u2019s rule, and consequences for vloggers and May 9 fugitives. \u201cI had told you all of this long ago. I hope you now understand,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Concluding his statement, Vawda warned what he called ‘the time to leash the enemies of Pakistan on the streets’ has now begun.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
