DG ISPR Engages Youth at LCWU, Urges National Unity Against Hybrid Threats

In a landmark interaction aimed at bridging the gap between the national security apparatus and the youth, the Director General of Inter-Services Public Relations (DG ISPR) held an extensive dialogue at Lahore College for Women University (LCWU) on Wednesday, February 11, 2026. The session focused on the shifting landscape of Pakistan’s internal and external security challenges, emphasizing the role of the younger generation in safeguarding the state’s sovereignty.

Strategic Briefing: Internal and External Nuances

The military spokesperson provided a comprehensive overview of the “battle for truth” (Maarka-e-Haq), outlining how Pakistan is navigating a complex web of conventional and non-conventional threats. A primary focus of the briefing was the surge in hybrid warfare and the necessity of fully implementing the National Action Plan (NAP).

Key security paradigms addressed included:

  • Fitna-al-Khawarij: A theological and security-based re-designation of the banned TTP to expose their deviance from Islamic principles.

  • Fitna-al-Hindustan: The official designation for India-backed proxy groups and separatist elements operating in Balochistan and across the country.

The Role of Academia and Youth

Vice Chancellor Professor Dr. Uzma Qureshi set the tone for the session by invoking the Quaid-e-Azam’s foundational motto: “Faith, Unity, and Discipline.” She urged the students to place their trust in the strategic measures taken by the Armed Forces to eradicate the scourge of terrorism.

“Engagements like these are vital for our students to understand that national security is not just a military concern, but a collective national responsibility,” stated Dr. Qureshi.

Open Exchange and Fact-Based Dialogue

The session was characterized by a transparent and “unrestricted” Q&A period. Students engaged with the DG ISPR on sensitive topics, including:

  • Propaganda on Social Media: Strategies to identify and counter disinformation campaigns.

  • National Unity: The importance of standing firm against internal divisions.

  • The Struggle for Sovereignty: A tribute to the sacrifices made by soldiers on the frontlines of the “Maarka-e-Haq.”

Participating students described the dialogue as “eye-opening,” noting that the logical, fact-based responses helped clear misconceptions regarding the state’s security policies. The session concluded with a standing ovation for the Armed Forces, as students reaffirmed their commitment to contributing to a stable and prosperous Pakistan.
