Mian Zahid Hussain said that Indian prime minister and policy makers know that war with Pakistan would be a very costly affair which will destroy both countries while damaging dozens of economies and billions of people.

Pakistan has faced heavy losses in the war against terror but it has not weakened the resolve of masses and security forces and we have enough skills to show real face of India to the world, he said.

Pakistan can counter unholy designs of India is a very effective way while keeping its developmental agenda intact, he added.

The veteran business leader said that India should stop dreaming of derailing our developmental agenda, fail CPEC and undermine war against terror.

Kashmir remains the unfinished agenda of 1947’s partition and without its resolution peace and prosperity cannot prevail in the region, he said
