Indian defence minister’s allegations rejected
91
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Sunday categorically rejected Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh’s terrorism-related allegations against Pakistan as completely baseless.
The Foreign Office spokesperson said in a statement that Pakistan had shared incontrovertible evidence with the international community of India’s state sponsorship of terrorism and subversion against Pakistan.
“India uses terrorism as an instrument of state policy. This year alone, India has been involved in terrorist attacks in Johar Town, Lahore and against Chinese and Pakistani workers at Dasu,” he said.
The spokesperson said the ruling BJP-RSS combine had a clear anti-Muslim and anti-minority agenda. They target Pakistan with false propaganda campaigns for both ideological reasons and political expediency.
He recalled that India’s so-called surgical strikes and ill-conceived misadventure in Balakot in February 2019 were exposed as based on nothing but lies and deceit.
Pakistan restored the strategic balance in the region by retaliating against India in a measured and firm manner, he said.
The spokesperson said that understanding of reaffirming of 2003 ceasefire in February 2021 only demonstrated that Pakistan was a responsible state that wanted to maintain peace in the region despite irresponsible Indian behaviour.
“Our desire for peace notwithstanding, Pakistan will resolutely defend itself against any aggressive Indian designs,” he resolved.

One can imagine the kind of mourning India is going through these days. They have lost all their investment in Afghanistan. They have lost the capability to launch terror attacks inside Pakistan.
As far as their habit of unleashing black propaganda is concerned, it will never die. What is important is to denude them in the eye of the international community about their racist, religiously charged politics of hate as counter propaganda.

Look who is talking. India is trying to divert the attention of the international community from the crimes it is committing against Kashmiris and Indian Muslims.
Today, poor Muslims of India are facing the wrath of religious bigots due to India's ejection from Afghanistan. Our government needs to unleash a powerful communication drive to highlight these issues in front of the International community.

What a travesty to the truth that India that is the biggest perpetrator of terrorism at home and abroad is making hues and cries against Pakistan. What is needed is to highlight the internal terrorism against Muslims of India to counter Indian propaganda so that the international community remains aware of mob lynching of Muslims in India, which itself is the worst kind of terrorism.

Nothing will consolidate or fix the issue of Indian occupation of Kashmiris against their will and international law. One day this must be sorted out as per wishes of Kashmiris. Meanwhile India can keep trying to get Pakistan declared epicenter of terrorism for extending its support to oppressed Kashmiris at the expense of poor Afghans.
