Once again, Pakistan has chosen to misuse an international platform to further its baseless propaganda against India. In response, India rightly pointed out Pakistan’s hypocrisy, calling it a “failed state” that survives on international handouts and thrives on instability. For decades, Pakistan has sought to project itself as a victim while systematically sponsoring cross-border terrorism. The Indian representative at the UN accurately described Pakistan’s modus operandi-spreading falsehoods dictated by its military-terrorist complex. While Pakistan lectures on human rights, it conveniently ignores its own track record of suppressing minorities, curbing press freedom, and eroding democratic values.
Jammu and Kashmir, an integral part of India, has witnessed remarkable progress in recent years. The region’s socio-economic development stands in stark contrast to the instability that Pakistan continues to fuel through terrorism. The people of Jammu and Kashmir have placed their trust in the Indian Government, as evidenced by the return of normalcy and an upsurge in economic growth. Pakistan, on the other hand, remains embroiled in domestic crises-economic collapse, political instability, and widespread human rights violations. Instead of addressing these pressing internal challenges, it persists in its unhealthy obsession with India. Moreover, Pakistan’s manipulation of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation as a tool to push its anti-India narrative further erodes its credibility. The global community is well aware of Pakistan’s duplicity. It harbours UN-designated terrorists while pretending to champion human rights. The irony is unmistakable-Pakistan criticises India for being unable to provide basic governance to its own citizens.
The world no longer buys into Pakistan’s hollow rhetoric. The international community recognises that its claims are driven by political expediency rather than genuine concern for human rights. India, meanwhile, continues to focus on development, democracy, and ensuring dignity for all its people-values that Pakistan would do well to learn from. Instead of engaging in futile propaganda, Pakistan must introspect. It must address its deep-seated governance failures, curb extremism within its borders, and stop harbouring terrorism. Habitual attempts to malign India at international forums will continue to be met with well-deserved rebuttals.
