ISLAMABAD: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs rejected the Narendra Modi’s irresponsible and war-mongering remarks that India could defeat Pakistan in 10 days.

The chief Foreign Office spokesperson said in statement on Wednesday, Pakistan completely rejects Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s irresponsible and war-mongering remarks. These remarks are another reflection of India’s incurable obsession with Pakistan and the BJP Government and leadership’s desperate attempts to divert attention from growing domestic and international criticism of their discriminatory,anti-Kashmir and anti-minority policies. The Indian Prime Minister’s threats and provocative statements further illustrate the extremist mindset that pervades the BJP leadership and has evidently permeated the state institutions in India.

The statement also said, Pakistan’s immediate and effective response to India’s Balakot misadventure, including the downing of Indian fighter aircraft and capture of Indian pilot last year, should suffice to underscore the will, capacity and preparedness of our armed forces. No one should underestimate the resolve of the people and the armed forces of Pakistan to effectively thwart any aggressive action.

“The Indian prime minister’s threats and provocative statements further illustrate the extremist mindset that pervades the BJP leadership and has evidently permeated the state institutions in India,” statement added.

Indian-Americans protest in US against Citizenship Amendment Act

Earlier on January 24, Economists mocked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his party as they claim that Modi has divided ‘World’s largest Democracy.

Modi-led Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had passed the controversial Citizenship Amendment Act and had amended the National Register of Citizens (NRC). These steps have created chaos in India and have outraged people.

Economists have called these steps in a recent article as ‘the most ambitious step yet in a decades-long project of incitement’.

It was also mentioned in the article that Modi’s actions have threatened to damage India’s democracy that could remain for years. His actions will further lead to bloodshed.
