India rejects Pakistan’s “baseless” allegations over Islamabad terror attack
India on Tuesday dismissed the “baseless and unfounded” allegations made by Pakistan’s leadership following a terror attack in Islamabad and Wana.
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif had blamed India for the incidents without offering any evidence.
In response, MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, “India unequivocally rejects the baseless and unfounded allegations being made by an obviously delirious Pakistani leadership. It is a predictable tactic by Pakistan to concoct false narratives against India in order to deflect the attention of its own public from the ongoing military-inspired constitutional subversion and power grab unfolding within the country.”
He added, “The international community is well aware of the reality and will not be misled by Pakistan’s desperate diversionary ploys.”
At least 12 people were killed and 36 others injured in a suicide blast outside the district and sessions court building in Islamabad’s G-11 area on Tuesday.
The explosion occurred amid several high-profile events being hosted in the capital, including the Inter-Parliamentary Speakers’ Conference, the 6th Margalla Dialogue, and a cricket match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka in Rawalpindi.
