ISLAMABAD: Appreciating the action by Pakistan Air Force (PAF) of shooting down two of Indian fighter jets, Federal Minister for Railways Sheikh Rasheed on Wednesday said the Pakistan is ‘alert’ and united against any cross border attack.
“PAF is regarded as one of the best air forces in the world,” the minister said while expressing his views with ARY News.
He said India still remembers MM Alam for his swift action in 1965 Indo-Pak war for striking down five of its aircrafts within 60 seconds.
Taking on Indian PM Narendra Modi, Rasheed said, he has pushed India into a fire just for the sake of wining polls.
He warned BJP government to avoid escalation, else situation can go worst.
