'New Low, Even For Pakistan': India Hits Back At Bilawal Bhutto's Remarks Against PM Modi
India criticised Pakistan Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto for his inflammatory personal assault on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, calling it a "new low even for Pakistan".
India condemned Pakistan minister Bilawal Bhutto's personal assault on Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a "new low" for a country that "glorifies Osama Bin Laden and harbours terrorists like Lakhvi, Hafeez Saeed, Sajid Mir, and Dawood Ibrahim."
Slamming the Pakistan's Foreign Minister, MEA in an issued statement said: "Pakistan is a country that glorifies Osama bin Laden as a martyr, and shelters terrorists like Lakhvi, Hafiz Saeed, Masood Azhar, Sajid Mir and Dawood Ibrahim. No other country can boast having 126 UN-designated terrorists and 27 UN-designated terrorist entities!"

"We wish that Pakistan Foreign Minister would have listened more sincerely yesterday at the UN Security Council to the testimony of Anjali Kulthe, a Mumbai nurse who saved the lives of 20 pregnant women from the bullets of the Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Kasab. Clearly, the Foreign Minister was more interested in whitewashing Pakistan's role. Pakistan FM's frustration would be better directed towards the masterminds of terrorist enterprises in his own country, who have made terrorism a part of their State policy. Pakistan needs to change its own mindset or remain a pariah," the statement reads.
At the UN, India and Pakistan have been waging a verbal battle on the issue of terrorism. When Bilawal brought up the Kashmir problem at the UN, Jaishankar responded appropriately, saying people who welcomed Osama had no business preaching here. In response, Bilawal launched a disparaging assault on Prime Minister Modi and the RSS, prompting harsh criticism from New Delhi.
The external affairs ministry described Bilawal's remarks as a "uncivilised outburst" and claimed they demonstrated Pakistan's "increasing inability" to utilise terrorists and their go-betweens.
"Cities like New York, Mumbai, Pulwama, Pathankot and London are among the many that bear the scars of Pakistan-sponsored, supported and instigated terrorism. This violence has emanated from their Special Terrorist Zones and exported to all parts of the world. "Make in Pakistan” terrorism has to stop," the ministry said.
