Pakistan has rejected Indian claims made during the Lok Sabha debate on “Operation Sindoor,” calling them baseless and provocative. The Foreign Ministry spokesperson condemned India on Wednesday for distorting facts, justifying aggression, and using conflict for domestic political gain.<\/p>\n

According to FO spokesperson, India\u2019s actions are a continuation of its tendency to fabricate allegations without credible evidence. Pakistan categorically rejected the notion of \u201cOperation Sindoor,\u201d which Indian leaders described as a military success targeting alleged terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan.<\/p>\n

The spokesperson reminded the world that India\u2019s attack on Pakistan during the night of May 6-7 resulted in the martyrdom of innocent civilians, including men, women, and children. “India failed to achieve any of its strategic objectives,” the spokesperson said, adding that Pakistan\u2019s counteraction in neutralising Indian fighter jets and military targets remains an undisputed fact.<\/p>\n

Pakistan also criticised India\u2019s refusal to engage in a transparent, independent probe into the Pahalgam attack, despite an offer made by the Prime Minister of Pakistan to investigate the matter. Instead of accepting the offer for an impartial investigation, India chose to escalate tensions and act unilaterally. “India acted as a judge, jury, and executioner at the same time,” the spokesperson stated.<\/p>\n

The spokesperson further dismissed India\u2019s claims about the so-called \u201cOperation Mahadev,\u201d calling it a fabricated narrative. The statement by India\u2019s Home Minister was described as unreliable, raising serious doubts about its credibility. Pakistan pointed out that the alleged perpetrators of the Pahalgam attack were reportedly killed just before the Lok Sabha debate began, questioning the timing and validity of the Indian version of events.<\/p>\n

Pakistan also strongly rejected India\u2019s continued insistence on establishing a \u201cnew normal\u201d in bilateral relations. “For us, the only ‘normal’ in bilateral relations is respect for sovereignty, territorial integrity, and adherence to the principles and purposes of the UN Charter,” the spokesperson said. Pakistan has made it clear that any future aggression will be met with force, as evidenced by its decisive actions in May 2025.<\/p>\n

Pakistan also reiterated its rejection of India\u2019s accusations regarding \u201cnuclear blackmail,\u201d calling such claims misleading. “India\u2019s narrative is a self-serving attempt to shift blame onto Pakistan and divert attention from its own escalatory actions,” the spokesperson stated. Pakistan affirmed that it uses its conventional capabilities to deter aggression, not to escalate conflict.<\/p>\n

In addition to the military claims, Pakistan registered its disapproval of India\u2019s unilateral actions concerning the Indus Waters Treaty. The spokesperson condemned India\u2019s decision to hold the treaty in abeyance, arguing that such a move shows a blatant disregard for international treaties and undermines regional cooperation. “India must immediately fulfil its treaty obligations instead of celebrating illegal and unilateral actions,” the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

The statement concluded by warning that India\u2019s reliance on disinformation and aggressive rhetoric risks destabilising South Asia. However, Pakistan remains committed to peace, regional stability, and meaningful dialogue aimed at resolving all outstanding issues, including the core dispute of Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n

The recent conflict between Pakistan and India marked a major military escalation between the two nuclear powers. Tension between Pakistan and India increased after the April 22 Pahalgam attack in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), which killed 26 tourists.<\/p>\n

In response, India undertook a series of hostile actions the next day on April 23, including suspending the 65-year-old Indus Waters Treaty (IWT), cancelling visas for Pakistani citizens, closing the Wagah-Attari border crossing, ordering the shutdown of the Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi. India and Pakistan subsequently\u00a0reduced\u00a0diplomatic staff at their respective embassies in the other’s countries.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pakistan strongly rejected the accusation, calling it unsubstantiated, but took reciprocal measures through its National Security Committee (NSC). These included halting trade with India, closing Pakistani airspace to Indian aircraft, and other countersteps.<\/p>\n

On the night of May 7, the Indian Air Force launched an unprovoked attack on civilian targets in Pakistan. The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) immediately retaliated and shot down at least six IAF jets, including three French-built Rafales.<\/p>\n

Escalating further, on the night of 9\u201310 May, India launched another round of strikes against Pakistan, but this time targeted military sites and airbases.<\/p>\n

In retaliation, Pakistan launched Operation Bunyanum Marsoos, striking back at Indian military installations, including missile storage sites, airbases and other strategic targets. The early morning strikes came as a shock for the Indian military leadership, who had underestimated Pakistan’s response to their unprovoked attacks.<\/p>\n

As the conflict spiralled, US President Donald Trump announced on May 10 that a ceasefire had been reached following intense diplomatic efforts overnight. The two sides gradually reduced troop numbers from the international border in the following weeks.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
