India has publicly slammed Pakistan, detailing a consistent pattern of harboring terrorist groups and resorting to blame-shifting to mask its own internal failures and regional interference. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) systematically dismantled Pakistan’s narrative surrounding border tensions and regional stability. New Delhi specifically named terrorist organizations allegedly patronized by Pakistan, including the Afghan Taliban, Lashkar-e-Taiba, Jaish-e-Mohammed, and the Haqqani Network. The MEA spokesperson articulated that blaming neighbors for domestic shortcomings is an established practice for Pakistan and voiced apprehension regarding Islamabad’s reaction to Afghanistan’s sovereign actions. India reiterated its firm commitment to Afghanistan’s independence and territorial integrity. This diplomatic broadside follows baseless claims by Pakistan’s Defence Minister, who accused Afghanistan of conducting a proxy war for India and alleged secret dealings during a recent Afghan delegation’s visit.
