Islamabad: Pakistan has firmly rejected the recent allegations made by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, calling them baseless, provocative, and irresponsible. <\/strong><\/p>\n

In a strong statement issued by the Foreign Office, Islamabad dismissed the accusations as a deliberate attempt to mislead the public and escalate regional tensions for political gain.<\/p>\n

The statement criticized Modi\u2019s remarks, which were made during a public address in Rajasthan, as distorted and inflammatory, noting that such rhetoric undermines the principles of responsible state behavior and international norms.<\/p>\n

The Foreign Office on Friday categorically rejected the \u201cbaseless, provocative, and irresponsible allegations\u201d made by the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who in a heated speech accused Pakistan of carrying out terrorist attacks in his country.<\/p>\n

The military confrontation between New Delhi and Islamabad came as tensions over last month\u2019s Pahalgam attack continued to build up, as India \u2014without evidence \u2014 blamed Pakistan for the attack.<\/p>\n

On the night of May 6-7, India launched a\u00a0series of air strikes\u00a0in Punjab and Azad Kashmir, resulting in civilian casualties. Islamabad responded by\u00a0downing five Indian jets.<\/p>\n

After\u00a0intercepting\u00a0drones sent by India and\u00a0tit-for-tat\u00a0strikes on each other\u2019s airbases, it took American intervention on May 10 for both sides to finally drop their guns and declare a\u00a0ceasefire.<\/p>\n

India has since continued its aggressive posturing even as Pakistan has warned against any further military aggression and\u00a0offered talks.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, the Indian premier\u00a0said\u00a0that Pakistan would not get water from rivers over which India has rights.<\/p>\n

According to a statement\u00a0issued\u00a0by the FO on X today, \u201cPakistan categorically rejects the baseless, provocative, and irresponsible allegations made by the Indian prime minister during a recent public address in Rajasthan.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe remarks, replete with distortions, misrepresentations, and inflammatory rhetoric, are clearly aimed at stoking regional tensions for narrow political gains,\u201d the FO said, adding that such statements not only reflect a deliberate attempt to mislead the public but also violate the norms responsible statecraft.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cResorting to threats and boasting about military action against a sovereign nation is a grave breach of the United Nations Charter and established principles of international law,\u201d the FO said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis dangerous approach undermines regional peace and stability,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n

The foreign ministry said that Pakistan remained a \u201cconsistent and proactive partner in the global fight against terrorism\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cAny insinuation seeking to associate Pakistan with acts of terrorism is factually incorrect and patently misleading,\u201d it continued.<\/p>\n

It noted that the Indian premier\u2019s tactic was \u201coften employed to divert attention from India\u2019s own internal challenges\u201d, adding that the Indian attempts to mask its \u201cserious human rights violations\u201d in occupied Kashmir by scapegoating Pakistan were well-documented and increasingly recognised by the international community.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe plight of the Kashmiri people and their just struggle for self-determination cannot be obscured by aggressive rhetoric and political deflection.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pakistan urged the Indian leadership to \u201cexercise responsibility and restraint\u201d, the FO said.<\/p>\n

\u201cEscalatory statements and belligerent posturing serve no purpose other than exacerbating tensions.<\/p>\n

\u201cRather than resorting to fictitious narratives and warmongering for electoral mileage, India should demonstrate maturity by resolving outstanding disputes through peaceful dialogue and diplomacy,\u201d the FO noted.<\/p>\n

It added that Pakistan remained firmly committed to \u201cpeaceful coexistence, regional stability, and constructive engagement\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, our desire for peace should not be misconstrued as weakness,\u201d it said, adding that the people and the armed forced were \u201cfully prepared and capable of defending the country\u2019s sovereignty and territorial integrity\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cAny misadventure or aggression will be met with a resolute and proportionate response,\u201d the FO added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It said that Pakistan has demonstrated its resolve in the past and will do so again, if required.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe international community must take serious note of India\u2019s aggressive posture and hate-driven narratives that threaten regional peace,\u201d it said, adding that it was \u201cimperative to discourage such rhetoric and actions to preserve stability in South Asia\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cGlorification of conflict benefits no one, and the path to lasting peace lies in dialogue, mutual respect, and adherence to international law,\u201d it concluded.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The tensions between India and Pakistan have intensified following last month\u2019s attack in Pahalgam. Without presenting evidence, India blamed Pakistan for the incident.<\/p>\n

In response, India launched airstrikes on May 6 and 7 targeting areas in Pakistan\u2019s Punjab and Azad Kashmir, which led to civilian casualties.<\/p>\n

Pakistan retaliated by shooting down five Indian fighter jets and intercepting several drones, including famous French Rafale.<\/p>\n

The hostilities escalated further with reciprocal strikes on airbases, eventually prompting U.S. intervention on May 10, which led to a ceasefire agreement.<\/p>\n

Pakistan Waters<\/h3>\n

Despite the truce, India has maintained a confrontational stance, with Prime Minister Modi recently threatening to cut off Pakistan\u2019s access to river waters that flow from India.<\/p>\n

In response, Pakistan reiterated its commitment to peace and regional stability while warning that its willingness to pursue diplomacy should not be mistaken for weakness.<\/p>\n

The Foreign Office emphasized that Pakistan is fully capable of defending its sovereignty and territorial integrity and would respond firmly to any act of aggression.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cRather than resorting to fictitious narratives and warmongering for electoral mileage, India should demonstrate maturity by resolving outstanding disputes through peaceful dialogue and diplomacy,\u201d the FO noted.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It also highlighted Pakistan\u2019s consistent efforts in the global fight against terrorism and rejected any attempts to associate the country with such acts as misleading and factually incorrect.<\/p>\n

India Human Rights Violations<\/h3>\n

Furthermore, Islamabad accused New Delhi of using aggressive narratives to divert attention from its internal issues and human rights violations, particularly in Indian-administered Kashmir.<\/p>\n

Pakistan argued that India often resorts to hostile rhetoric to mask the plight of the Kashmiri people and to deflect from calls for self-determination in the region.<\/p>\n

The statement urged Indian leadership to act responsibly and refrain from actions or statements that could further destabilize the region.<\/p>\n

Pakistan called on the international community to recognize the risks posed by India\u2019s aggressive posturing and hate-driven narratives.<\/p>\n

It warned that glorifying conflict serves no one and that the only sustainable path to peace lies through dialogue, mutual respect, and adherence to international law.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cAny misadventure or aggression will be met with a resolute and proportionate response,\u201d the FO added.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Foreign Office concluded by stressing that while Pakistan seeks peaceful coexistence, it remains fully prepared to defend itself if provoked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
