RAWALPINDI: Imran Khan has said on Friday (5th July, 2024) that PTI was ready to participate in the APC to be organised by the government in order to ponder over the pros and cons of Operation Azm-e-Istehkaam, meant to crush terrorist outfits like TTP with full might of the state.

It is pertinent to mention here that Azm-e-Istehkaam will be the latest of such operations which had been carried out after intervals for decades now: Earlier, back in 2014, Gen Raheel Sharif had launched Zarb-e-Azb, in 2014 to combat militants in North Waziristan.

Later, in 2017, Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa oversaw Radd-ul-Fasaad, to destroy the “residual terrorist threats” in Pakistan. During Azm-e-Istehkaam, to be carried out by General Asim Munir, military, diplomatic, legislative, and socio-economic platforms will be used to contain the extremism.
