Former Pakistan bowler Shoaib Akhtar made a controversial statement. An old video of his is doing the rounds on social media where he was heard speaking about ‘Ghazwa-e-Hind.’
"Ghazwa e Hind is mentioned in our sacred books. We will first capture Kashmir and then invade India from all sides for Ghazwa e Hind"

During an interview with Samaa TV, the Rawalpindi Express said: “It is written in our scriptures that Ghazwa e Hind will take place. The river in Attock will be coloured red twice with blood. Forces from Afghanistan will reach till Attock. After that forces will rise from Shamal Mashriq, different contingents will arrive from Uzbekistan, etc. This refers to Khorasan, a historical region which extended till Lahore.”
“Then those forces will conquer Kashmir, and then, inshallah, they will march onwards,” he added.
