Pak’s Fanatical Mindset is Well Known: India on Pak’s Reference to J&K at UN
The United Nations General Assembly has always been a platform for nations to voice their concerns, present their perspectives, and advocate for their interests. However, the recent statement made by former Foreign Secretary of Pakistan at the UN has sparked a heated debate and criticism from India. In a scathing rebuke, India’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Parvathaneni Harish, has called out Pakistan’s “unjustified” reference to Jammu and Kashmir, highlighting the “fanatical mindset” of the nation.
The incident took place during the 77th session of the United Nations General Assembly, where Pakistan’s former Foreign Secretary, Tehmina Janjua, made a statement on the Kashmir issue. Janjua claimed that Pakistan had been “consistently advocating for the rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir” and that the international community had a “responsibility to ensure justice and self-determination” for the people of the region.
However, India’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Parvathaneni Harish, was quick to respond to the statement, calling it “unjustified” and “baseless”. Harish emphasized that Pakistan’s repeated attempts to raise the Kashmir issue at the international forum were a testament to the nation’s “fanatical mindset”. He added that such “frequent references” would not validate Pakistan’s claim or justify its “practice of cross-border terrorism”.
India’s criticism of Pakistan’s statement is not new. The two nations have a long-standing dispute over the status of Jammu and Kashmir, which has led to several military conflicts and skirmishes. However, the recent statement by Pakistan’s former Foreign Secretary has sparked a fresh wave of criticism from India, with many calling it a desperate attempt to divert attention from Pakistan’s own internal issues.
Pakistan’s statement has also been met with skepticism by many nations, with several countries expressing their support for India’s position on the Kashmir issue. The United States, for instance, has consistently emphasized the need for a peaceful and diplomatic resolution to the dispute, while the United Kingdom has stressed the importance of respecting the status quo in Jammu and Kashmir.
Despite the criticism, Pakistan has refused to back down on its stance on Jammu and Kashmir. The nation has consistently maintained that the Kashmir issue is a matter of international concern and that it is the responsibility of the international community to ensure justice and self-determination for the people of the region.
However, India has reiterated its position that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of the country and that any discussion on the issue should be held bilaterally with Pakistan. The nation has also emphasized its commitment to maintaining peace and stability in the region, while also emphasizing the need for Pakistan to take concrete steps to curb terrorism and dismantle the infrastructure of terrorism on its soil.
In conclusion, the recent statement by Pakistan’s former Foreign Secretary at the UN has sparked a heated debate and criticism from India. The “fanatical mindset” of Pakistan is well known, and its repeated attempts to raise the Kashmir issue at the international forum are a testament to its desperation to divert attention from its own internal issues. India has reiterated its position on the Kashmir issue, emphasizing the need for a peaceful and diplomatic resolution to the dispute. The international community must take note of Pakistan’s actions and recognize the need for a constructive engagement with India to resolve the issue peacefully.
