"A Failed State Thriving on Instability and Handouts": India Slams Pakistan at UN | India News
In a scathing rebuke, India on Thursday slammed Pakistan at the 58th Session of the UN Human Rights Council, labeling it a "failed state that thrives on instability and survives on international handouts."
The Root of the Problem: Pakistan’s Leadership
Indian diplomat Kshitij Tyagi, representing India at the UN, delivered a blistering retort, accusing Pakistan of spreading falsehoods and using the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) as a "mouthpiece" to push its agenda against India.
Focus on Kashmir Unjustified
Tyagi lashed out at Pakistan for its continued focus on Kashmir, saying, "It is regrettable to see Pakistan’s leaders and delegates continuing to spread falsehoods handed down by its military-terrorist complex." He pointed to the significant political, social, and economic progress in the region, saying, "The Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh will always remain an integral and inalienable part of India."
Pakistan’s Human Rights Record
Highlighting Pakistan’s alleged human rights abuses and its harbouring of UN-sanctioned terrorists, Tyagi said, "As a country where human rights abuses, persecution of minorities, and systematic erosion of democratic values constitute state policies, and which brazenly harbours UN-sanctioned terrorists, Pakistan is in no position to lecture anyone."
Conclusion: India Stands Proud of Its Values and Achievements
Tyagi’s remarks echo India’s consistent stance on the Kashmir issue, emphasizing that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India. He urged Pakistan to focus on addressing its internal governance failures and providing actual governance and justice to its own people.
**"The Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh will always remain an integral and inalienable part of India. The unprecedented political, social, and economic progress in J&K in the past few years speaks for itself. These successes are a testament to the people’s trust in the government’s commitment to bring normalcy to a region scarred by decades of Pakistan-sponsored terrorism."
India maintaining its stance on Kashmir, while shedding light on Pakistan’s own human rights record, is a clear signal that the country will not be intimidated by Pakistan’s rhetoric and will continue to uphold its(values of democracy, progress, and dignity for its people.
Why This Matters
This stark rebuke by India of Pakistan at the UN Human Rights Council sends a clear message that India will not be bullied or undermined by Pakistan’s aggressive posturing. It is a testament to India’s commitment to upholding its values of democracy, progress, and dignity, regardless of the challenges it may face. As the world watches, India remains unwavering in its resolve to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity, while Pakistan’s faltering leadership struggles to maintain relevance on the global stage.
What’s Next?
As the dust settles on this latest salvo in the ongoing political saga, it is crucial for India and Pakistan to engage in meaningful dialogue and address the deep-seated issues that plague their relationship. India’s robust diplomacy and unwavering commitment to its values and principles will remain a beacon of hope for the region, while Pakistan’s leadership will need to confront the stinging reality of its own failures. Will Pakistan to take concrete steps to address its internal governance issues and curb terrorism, or will it continue to rely on international handouts to prop up its tottering regime? Only time will tell.
