Pakistan on Friday said that it is committed to peace, regional stability and a meaningful dialogue for the resolution of all outstanding issues, including the issue of Jammu and Kashmir.

The remark by Foreign Office spokesperson Shafqat Ali Khan came while he was addressing the media.

“Pakistan, as a responsible country, remains committed to peace, regional stability and a meaningful dialogue for the resolution of all outstanding issues, including the dispute of Jammu and Kashmir," he said.

Criticising Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his statements on Operation Sindoor, he said that Indian leaders “would be well advised to acknowledge the losses incurred by their armed forces." He claimed that the Indian narrative of an alleged nuclear threat by Pakistan is “misleading."

During the press conference, Khan highlighted that Pakistan is a proud custodian of many religious sites of the Sikh faith and every year, it welcomes thousands of Sikh pilgrims from across the world.

“As always, we are ready to welcome the pilgrims from the Indian side," he said.

His remarks come as India-Pakistan ties have soured following Pahalgam attack on April 22 that left 26 dead.

In response, India launched a military operation called Operation Sindoor on 7 May 2025, targeting “terror infrastructure" in Pakistani territory and in Pakistan-administered Kashmir.

After days of exchanges (including missile, mortar, and artillery fire; cross-border skirmishes), both sides agreed to a ceasefire on 10 May 2025.
