Military ready for anything: Musharraf

ISLAMABAD, AUG. 23. The Pakistani military ruler, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, said today that any attempt to violate Pakistani territory would be repulsed ``with full force,'' an official report said.

Gen. Musharraf told troops at a training area outside Lahore that Pakistan was ``fully capable of thwarting any aggressive design of the adversary.''

``Any attempt to violate our territorial integrity will be repulsed with full force,'' the military's Inter-Service Public Relations Department quoted him as saying.

He praised the ``devotion and commitment'' of the troops and said their ``toil had made the country so strong that the enemy cannot cast an evil eye on Pakistan.''
