Pakistan accuse India of sponsoring terrorism in region, warn for serious consequences

By The South Asia Times 

 

ISLAMABAD — Senior Pakistani security officials accused India of sponsoring terrorism and pursuing policies aimed at destabilizing Pakistan and the wider region, while criticizing New Delhi's domestic governance, treatment of minorities and policies in Kashmir.

 

The remarks were made during a closed-door briefing with media influencers, according to Pakistani security sources.

 

The officials alleged that India was seeking to divert international attention from its internal challenges by fueling tensions with Pakistan. They claimed that New Delhi was unwilling to recognize "ground realities" and accused the country's leadership of pursuing expansionist policies driven by Hindutva ideology.

 

According to the officials, religious nationalism has eroded India's secular identity, increased intolerance and deepened social divisions. They further alleged that India's armed forces had become increasingly influenced by the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party's political agenda.

 

The briefing also included allegations that freedom of expression and press freedom in India are under state control, and claimed discrimination against religious minorities has intensified. Security officials warned that continued communal tensions could have serious consequences for India's social cohesion.

 

On Kashmir, the officials accused India of maintaining a heavy military presence in the disputed territory and reiterated Pakistan's longstanding position that the people of Kashmir should be allowed to determine their future. They also alleged that India stages "false flag" incidents to blame Pakistan and divert global attention from the Kashmir issue.

 

The officials further claimed that India views a stable and economically prosperous Pakistan as a strategic threat and alleged that anti-Pakistan narratives are being promoted by sections of India's political leadership and media.

 

They also accused the leadership of the banned Joint Public Action Committee of advancing what they described as an Indian agenda.

 

Concluding the briefing, the officials said Pakistan would not be intimidated by India and reaffirmed the country's commitment to safeguarding its sovereignty and national security.
