Shafi Burfat, Chairman of the Jeay Sindh Muttahida Mahaz (JSMM), criticized Pakistan’s Chief of Defence Forces, Asim Munir, for his elevation to the highest ceremonial rank without notable military achievements. Burfat highlighted Munir’s focus on titles and religious symbolism as signs of insecurity rather than competence.
Burfat pointed out Munir’s assertion that Hindus and Muslims are separate nations due to religious differences, emphasizing that nations are built on shared history and interests, not theology. He criticized Munir’s reliance on divine intervention rhetoric, stating that it distorts reality and insults public intelligence.
The Sindhi leader challenged Munir’s claim of unity between the army and the people, citing regional tensions and civil-military discord within Pakistan. Burfat urged the global community to view Pakistan critically, describing its role as a promoter of violence rather than a responsible state in the international system.
