The United Nations Security Council has rejected a India’s proposal seeking sanctions against Pakistan over terrorism, the Foreign Office said on Sunday.
“UN Security Council’s 1267 Sanctions Committee related to Islamic State (IS) and al Qaeda has rejected a politically motivated proposal by India,” FO spokesperson Nafeez Zakaria said in a statement.
“Replete with frivolous information and baseless allegations, the Indian proposal had no merit and was aimed at advancing its narrow national agenda,” the spokesperson added.
Zakaria said India has deployed terrorism as an instrument of state policy, and has itself been involved in perpetrating, sponsoring, supporting, and financing terrorism.
He said Pakistan has been a direct victim of India’s state sponsored terrorism and confessions of RAW’s agent Kulbhushan Jadhav about his involvement in terrorist activities in Pakistan proves this fact.
The spokesman said more evidence of India’s involvement in terrorism inside Pakistan will also be shared with the United Nations and international community.
He said it is clear that India’s unfounded allegations against Pakistan are in fact aimed at masking its own terrorist activities in Pakistan.
Zakaria said Pakistan has made significant contribution and rendered enormous sacrifices in success of international community’s efforts against terrorism.
