ISLAMABAD, Dec 14, (APP): Pakistan\u2019s foreign ministry has strongly denounced the \u201cunwarranted, gratuitous and offensive\u201d comments by Indian defence minister Rajnath Singh, questioning established historical facts levelling baseless allegations in the context of terrorism, and launching threats against Pakistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt is the BJP\u2019s special agenda to misrepresent history, resort to revisionism and delusional thinking, and indulge in false bravado. Such discourse is particularly evident whenever elections in key states in India are approaching,\u201d Asim Iftikhar Ahmed, the Foreign Office Spokesperson, said in response to the Indian minister\u2019s statement, according to local media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said the timing of the Indian defence minister\u2019s provocative move was not surprising, as the BJP-RSS combination was desperate to win the upcoming elections in Uttar Pradesh and other states of India, typically inciting hyper-nationalism and seeking to advance the extremist \u2018Hindutva\u2019 agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Indian defence minister\u2019s chest-thumping and war-mongering is nothing but further evidence of India\u2019s irresponsible behavior and its relentless belligerence towards Pakistan\u201d, the spokesman of FM further added in his reply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regarding the issue of terrorism, he said, the international community is well aware of how the Hindutva-inspired regime in India is carrying out state-terrorism against the Kashmiris in Indian Administered Jammu and Kashmir by demolishing their legitimate rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe BJP leaders will be well-advised to desist from any ill-conceived misadventure and also stop dragging Pakistan in India\u2019s domestic politics for electoral gains,\u201d the spokesman asserted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In November last year, Pakistan presented a comprehensive dossier with irrefutable evidence of the Indian government\u2019s planning, aiding, abetting, financing, and executing terrorist activities in Pakistan, according to APP.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
