Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif has expressed the resolve to defend the state institutions at all costs and nobody will be allowed to malign them.

Speaking on the floor of the House, he said former Prime Minister Imran Khan is using inappropriate language against the armed forces and other constitutional institutions, which is condemnable. He said the armed forces of Pakistan are the guarantors of country’s security, while Imran Khan is trying to create differences among the state institutions. He said Imran Khan has become a security risk.

The Defence Minister said Imran Khan has nothing good on his credit to convince the people to support him. He said the former Prime Minister is making a futile effort to save his politics by using religious and anti-American cards.
