India has firmly rejected recent remarks made by the Spokesperson of the Pakistani Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding incidents within India. Official Spokesperson Shri Randhir Jaiswal dismissed the comments, stating that they come from a country with an “abysmal record” on minority rights that speaks for itself.
Jaiswal emphasized that the systemic victimization of minorities in Pakistan is a well-established fact that cannot be obfuscated by finger-pointing.
The sharp rebuttal highlights the ongoing diplomatic friction between the two neighboring nations, with New Delhi consistently criticizing Islamabad’s treatment of its diverse religious communities.
The statement was issued in New Delhi on December 29, following media queries about Pakistan’s stance.
This exchange adds another layer to the complex and often strained relationship between India and Pakistan, as both sides continue to trade verbal blows on the international stage.
