‘Vacate Indian Territory’: MEA Slams Pakistan For Remarks On J&K

Published:


India has strongly criticized Pakistan for its response to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s remarks on Indo-Pak relations. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on Tuesday asserted that Pakistan’s continued support for cross-border terrorism remains the biggest obstacle to peace in the region and urged Islamabad to vacate Indian territory under its illegal occupation.

MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal, addressing media queries, dismissed Pakistan’s comments on Jammu and Kashmir. Responding to Pakistan’s comments, Jaiswal stated, “We note that Pakistan has once again made some comments about the Indian Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir. The world knows that the real issue is Pakistan’s active promotion and sponsorship of cross-border terrorism. In fact, this is the biggest roadblock to peace and security in the region. Instead of spreading lies, Pakistan should vacate Indian territory under its illegal and forcible occupation.”

The diplomatic exchange follows Prime Minister Modi’s recent interview with American podcaster Lex Fridman, where he spoke about his efforts to improve ties with Pakistan. PM Modi noted that every attempt to foster peace had been met with hostility and betrayal.

He highlighted how he invited then-Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to his swearing-in ceremony in 2014 as a gesture of goodwill but said that such efforts were repeatedly undermined by Islamabad’s actions.
