Speaking on the floor of the National Assembly, he declared, “We will show them to our children and tell them that when India failed with its jets, it used drones.”
He went on to say that India also sustained significant casualties along the Line of Control, emphasizing that Pakistan had made significant progress in conventional warfare. “There aren’t many instances of this in the world.”
