‘Indian PM’s statements a sad political gimmickry’

islamabad — Indian Premier Narendra Modi’s statements against Pakistan are a sad political gimmickry and should be a matter of concern for the international community, the Foreign Office said on Thursday.

During his weekly media interaction here, Foreign Office spokesperson Dr Mohammed Faisal said India can keep repeating such fallacious allegations but they won’t become the truth.

“These accusations must not be taken seriously by the international community rather they must take steps to stop Indian atrocities in Indian-controlled Kashmir”, he added.

Dr Faisal said that widespread protest in India over the brutal torture and murder of the Muslim little girl Asifa in Kathua, Kashmir is a big failure of Indian government.

The spokesperson said that it is ironic that the country, whose highest officials are on record for statements against the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Pakistan, chose to indulge in blatant hypocrisy by twisting the facts.

“There is no better example of Indian hypocrisy than the confessions of Commander Kalbhushan Yadhav who was involved in terrorism in Pakistan that had caused bloodshed in the country”, he added.

Dr Faisal said that Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif will visit Beijing for two days from Monday to attend the meeting of Council of Foreign Ministers of the SCO. The meeting will discuss regional peace and stability besides ways and means to further promote cooperation at different levels. — APP
