The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) criticized former Pakistani diplomat Abdul Basit for his recent provocative comments against India. Basit suggested that attacking Indian cities like New Delhi and Mumbai should be Pakistan’s response if threatened by the US. Reacting to this, BJP’s Tuhin Sinha labeled Pakistan as a “terrorist state,” emphasizing its reliance on terrorism for survival. Sinha highlighted past instances of aggression by Pakistan and condemned its threats towards India.
The BJP spokesperson underscored Pakistan’s history of terrorism, citing instances like the reported airstrikes on a drug rehabilitation center in Kabul. Sinha pointed out that India’s strong stance, including actions like suspending the Indus Waters Treaty, has significantly impacted Pakistan’s support for terrorism. He also criticized the previous UPA government for its perceived inaction against Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
Sinha highlighted the contrast between the current government’s proactive approach and the UPA’s alleged silence, asserting that Pakistan’s recent statements reflect its disturbed state post-Operation Sindoor. He concluded by stating that Pakistan’s terrorism activities have been curtailed, urging the country to reconsider its aggressive tactics.
