Pakistan Launches ‘Battle of Truth’ Book
ISLAMABAD – The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting hosted a ceremony in Islamabad for the launch of “The Battle of Truth (Maarka-e-Haq)”, a pictorial book highlighting national narrative and historical perspective.
Federal Parliamentary Secretary Barrister Danyal Chaudhry, Federal Minister for Defence Khawaja Asif, Federal Minister for Information Attaullah Tarar, and Secretary Ashfaq Ahmad Khalil unveiled the publication. The event focused on themes of resilience and sacrifices explored in the book, described by officials as a comprehensive account.
Defence Minister Khawaja Asif addressed the gathering, stating that minorities in India continue to face oppression while New Delhi attempts to mislead the international community through staged incidents like Pulwama. He claimed India supports destabilizing elements such as “Fitna al-Hindustan” and “Fitna al-Khawarij”, undermining regional peace.
Minister for Information Attaullah Tarar noted Pakistan’s stance has gained wider international recognition, rejecting what he described as India’s narrative on key issues. Retired Lieutenant General Aamir Riaz highlighted the historical context of Pakistan’s formation and its contemporary position, emphasizing millions sacrificed during independence struggle to establish state foundations inspired by Allama Iqbal.
Riaz also discussed the influence of RSS in Indian politics, promoting Hindutva ideology, and India’s failed attempts at diplomatically isolating Pakistan. He described recent incidents like Pahalgam as false flag operations, stressing coordinated Pakistani responses and media role in countering allegations.
Throughout the ceremony, speakers emphasized unity and institutional coordination, repeatedly referencing “The Battle of Truth”, which documents political, military, and societal dimensions tied to Pakistan’s history and present-day challenges.
