Pak acted like ISIS, India won’t sit quietly: Owaisi on J&K attack
The recent terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed the lives of 26 innocent people, has sent shockwaves across the nation. The attack, carried out by terrorists, has left the country in a state of outrage and anger. Amidst the widespread condemnation, All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi has made a bold statement, likening Pakistan’s actions to those of the terrorist organization ISIS.
In a recent interview, Owaisi said that Pakistan’s actions are akin to those of ISIS, which is notorious for its brutal tactics and disregard for human life. “If they enter a country and kill innocent people, that country will not sit quietly,” he stated, making it clear that India will not take the attack lying down.
Owaisi’s comments come as no surprise, given the long-standing tensions between India and Pakistan over issues like Kashmir and terrorism. The Pahalgam attack is just the latest in a series of incidents that have strained relations between the two countries.
The AIMIM chief also drew attention to the stark differences in the military budgets of the two countries. “Pakistan’s budget is not even equal to India’s military budget,” he said, highlighting the vast disparity in resources and capabilities. This statement is particularly significant, given the fact that Pakistan has been accused of spending a significant portion of its budget on its military, which is often used to fund terrorist activities.
The Pahalgam attack is a stark reminder of the dangers posed by terrorism and the need for countries to work together to combat this menace. It is also a wake-up call for India, which has been criticized for its handling of terrorist incidents in the past.
India has a long history of fighting terrorism, and has made significant strides in recent years to combat this threat. From the Surgical Strikes of 2016 to the Balakot airstrikes in 2019, India has shown its willingness to take decisive action against terrorist organizations.
However, despite these efforts, terrorist attacks continue to occur, often with devastating consequences. The Pahalgam attack is a grim reminder of the ongoing threat posed by terrorism, and the need for continued vigilance and cooperation between countries.
Owaisi’s statement is also significant in the context of the upcoming general elections in India. The AIMIM chief has been a vocal critic of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its policies, and his comments are likely to be seen as a swipe at the party’s handling of the Pahalgam attack.
In recent years, the BJP has been accused of using terrorism as a political tool, with some critics arguing that the party has used terrorist attacks to further its own political agenda. Owaisi’s comments are likely to be seen as a challenge to the BJP’s handling of the Pahalgam attack, and may be seen as a bid to capitalize on the widespread outrage and anger that has been generated by the incident.
Despite the political implications, Owaisi’s statement is a stark reminder of the dangers posed by terrorism and the need for countries to work together to combat this menace. The Pahalgam attack is a tragedy that has left the nation in shock, and it is imperative that we come together to condemn such acts of terrorism and work towards a more peaceful and secure future.
