India slams Pakistan government over support to cross border terrorism

New Delhi/UNI: After Pakistan claimed that it has proof against India sponsoring terrorism, New Delhi on Sunday sharply attacked Islamabad and said that such proof has no credibility, are fabricated and represent figments of imagination.

In a stern message to Islamabad, India asked to end its support to cross border terrorism.

“The so called claims of ‘proof’ against India enjoy no credibility, are fabricated and represent figments of imagination. This desperate attempt will find few takers as the international community is aware of Pakistan’s tactics and proof of its terror sponsorship has been admitted by none other than its own leadership,” Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said.

He also said that “the face of global terror, Osama Bin Laden, was found in Pakistan; Pakistan’s PM glorified him as a ‘martyr’ from the floor of Parliament; he admitted the presence of 40,000 terrorists in Pakistan; their Science and Technology Minister proudly claimed involvement and success of Pakistan, led by its Prime Minister, in the Pulwama terror attack in which 40 Indian soldiers were martyred.”

“Despite repeated calls for restraint and adherence to the ceasefire understanding of 2003 for maintaining peace and tranquillity, Pakistani forces continue to engage in providing supporting cover fire to infiltrators,” he said.

The incessant infiltration of terrorists and induction of weapons to fuel terror activities continues unabated. Such activities are not possible without the support of Pakistani forces deployed along the LoC, Srivastava added.

The press conference was a deliberate attempt on the part of the Pakistani establishment to shift focus from its internal political and economic failures. It also seeks to justify cross-border terrorism, including ceasefire violations and infiltration across the LoC and IB, he said.

Pakistani leaders have never hidden the fact that it has become a factory for producing terrorists, he said.

India is not the only neighbour to be targeted as underlined by the statements of countries similarly targeted, the MEA spokesperson said.

“Distant parts of the world have seen the terror trail lead back to Pakistan. Concocting documents and peddling false narratives will not absolve Pakistan of such actions. We are confident the world will hold it to account,” he said.
