According to President Zardari, Marka-e-Haq is a pivotal period in Pakistani history.

“Marka-e-Haq” was one of the most important periods in Pakistan’s history, according to President Asif Ali Zardari, who stated on Sunday that the nation had responded to Indian aggression with a “calibrated and shocking response” while acting responsibly.

The president was speaking at a special event at the Pakistan Monument in Islamabad to commemorate the first anniversary of the conflict, which started with the attack on Pahalgam on April 22 and ended on May 10 of last year with a truce following Operation Bunyan-un-Marsoos.

Along with senior civil and military officials, foreign diplomats, and political figures, the ceremony was attended by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Chief of Defence Forces and Chief of Army Staff Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, Chief of Naval Staff Admiral Naveed Ashraf, and Chief of Air Staff Air Chief Marshal Zaheer Ahmad Baber Sidhu.

In his remarks, President Zardari accused India of using the false flag Pahalgam event as justification for unjustified aggression.

He criticized Indian media for propagating false narratives during the crisis and declared, “India launched airstrikes on Pakistan’s civilian and worship places without any justification.”

According to the president, Field Marshal Asim Munir’s “dynamic leadership” enabled Pakistan’s military forces to react successfully.

“Pakistan responded to the Indian aggression with a calculated and startling response,” he stated.

Despite Pakistan’s military might, President Zardari insisted that the country acted with maturity and moderation.

“As a responsible and peace-preferring state, our response was mature and measured,” he said.

The president praised the Pakistan Air Force, saying that despite confronting a more powerful opponent, its pilots had shown remarkable competence and confidence during the conflict.

“Our pilots defended our skies with extraordinary skills and confidence, despite facing a larger adversary,” he stated.
