Pakistan has rejected in strongest terms, the baseless and irresponsible allegations propagated by Indian media, accusing Pakistan of launching attacks on Pathankot, Jaisalmer, and Srinagar.

In a statement released late last night, the Foreign Office termed the Indian claims as “unfounded, politically motivated, and part of a reckless propaganda campaign aimed at maligning Pakistan”.

The Foreign Office said India’s “repeated pattern of leveling accusations against Pakistan without any credible investigation reflected a deliberate strategy to manufacture a pretext for aggression and to further destabilise the region”.

“Such actions not only further endanger regional peace but also reveal a disturbing willingness to exploit misinformation for political and military ends,” the FO said.

The statement also urged the international community to take serious note of this dangerous behavior and to counsel India toward restraint and responsibility.
