ABBOTTABAD: Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee (CJCSC) General Nadeem Raza said on Saturday that Pakistan was committed to peace and had contributed towards the regional peace and stability.

Addressing the passing out parade of cadets of 143rd Long Course at the Pakistan Military Academy in Kakul, he asked the world to recognise Pakistan’s consistent peace overtures and take notice of the human rights violations in India-held Kashmir.

He said that the entire nation stood united against terrorism and extremism.

Congratulating the passing out cadets on successful completion of the training, the CJCSC advised them to keep themselves abreast of the latest challenges.

He said that the only way to meet the challenges was through professional prowess and dedication as the nation pinned high hopes on the Armed Forces of Pakistan.

The CJCSC reviewed the parade and gave awards to the distinguished cadets.
