Chandigarh, May 10, 2025 (Yes Punjab News)
Leader of Opposition in Punjab Vidhan Sabha, Shri Partap Singh Bajwa, today welcomed the ceasefire between India and Pakistan, calling it a positive step towards peace in the region. “I welcome the ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan.
Peace along the borders is in the interest of both nations, especially for the people of Punjab which shares a 553 km border with Pakistan. Stability in these areas is not just a matter of diplomacy, but a necessity for the prosperity and safety of our border communities,” Bajwa said.
While lauding the initiative, Bajwa stressed that national security cannot be compromised. “India has always stood for peaceful dialogue, but terrorism and cross-border infiltration cannot be tolerated. Peace cannot come at the cost of our national security,” he asserted.
He emphasized that Pakistan must take concrete steps to dismantle terror infrastructure on its soil if the peace process is to be sustained. “While I support all efforts toward peace, it is equally important that Pakistan ensures no terror infrastructure is allowed to operate from its soil,” Bajwa added.
Highlighting the potential benefits of a peaceful border, Bajwa said, “A stable border means better lives for our farmers, traders, and families living in frontier areas.
Bajwa concluded by urging all stakeholders to remain committed to peace, dialogue, and mutual respect, while safeguarding the interests of the nation and the people living along the border.
