Home Minister Amit Shah’s account of forces killing who he mentioned had been three Pakistanis concerned within the April assault on vacationers in Jammu and Kashmir was “replete with fabrications”, Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry mentioned on Wednesday (July 30, 2025).
Mr. Shah advised Parliament on Tuesday (July 29, 2025) that the three militants killed in a gun battle in a Kashmir forest this week had been the perpetrators of the April 22 Pahalgam assault and that New Delhi had discovered proof to again it.
“Pakistan categorically rejects the baseless assertions and provocative claims made by the Indian leaders during the Lok Sabha debate on the so-called “Operation Sindoor.” These statements mirror a harmful tendency to distort info, justify aggression, and glorify battle for home consumption,” Spokesperson for Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry mentioned.
“The account given by the Indian Home Minister is replete with fabrications, leading to serious questions about its credibility,” Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry mentioned in a statement.
The world is aware of that India attacked Pakistan with none verifiable proof or a reputable investigation into the Pahalgam Attack. During the intervening evening of 6 and seven May 2025, India’s concentrating on of the alleged terrorist infrastructure resulted really within the martyrdom of harmless males, ladies, and youngsters. India failed to attain any of its strategic goals. On the opposite hand, Pakistan’s resounding success in neutralising the Indian fighter jets and navy targets is an proven fact, the Spokesperson mentioned.
Instead of deceptive their compatriots, the Indian leaders could be well-advised to acknowledge the losses incurred by their armed forces and settle for the energetic function performed by the third events in realising the ceasefire, the statement mentioned.
“India did not avail itself of the immediate offer made by the Prime Minister of Pakistan for a transparent and independent probe into the Pahalgam Attack. Instead, it chose the path of belligerence and aggression. It acted as judge, jury and executioner at the same time. Against this backdrop, any claims regarding the so-called “Operation Mahadev” don’t maintain any significance for us. The account given by the Indian Home Minister is replete with fabrications, resulting in critical questions on its credibility. Is it a mere coincidence that the alleged perpetrators of the Pahalgam Attack had been killed at the beginning of the Lok Sabha debate?” the Spokesperson mentioned.
“We also reiterate our unequivocal rejection of the ceaseless Indian statements on establishing a “new normal” in bilateral relations. As we now have already proven via our resolute actions in May 2025, we will forcefully counter any future aggression. For us, the one “normal” in bilateral relations is respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity and adherence to the ideas and functions of the U.N. Charter,” the statement mentioned.
“The Indian narrative of an alleged “nuclear blackmail” by Pakistan is a deceptive and self-serving assemble, and an try to veil its personal escalatory impulses whereas shifting blame onto Pakistan. It is well-known that Pakistan deterred India via its typical capabilities, affirming that self-discipline and restraint stay its guiding ideas,” the statement added.
“We also wish to register our disapproval of the Indian leaders’ misplaced assertions regarding the Indus Waters Treaty. India’s decision to hold the Treaty in abeyance shows its blatant disregard for the sanctity of international treaties, and strikes at a fundamental pillar of regional cooperation. Instead of taking pride in a unilateral and illegal move, India must immediately fulfil its Treaty obligations,” the spokesperson mentioned.
“India’s continued reliance on disinformation, jingoism, and chest-thumping risks destabilising South Asia. However, as a responsible country, Pakistan remains committed to peace, regional stability, and a meaningful dialogue for resolution of all outstanding issues, including the core dispute of Jammu and Kashmir,” the statement mentioned.
