Most unfortunately, regretfully and quite shamefully, India has never accepted the partition of the subcontinent and the subsequent creation of Pakistan on the world map as the Muslims’ own motherland, where they could be free from British rule and lead their own lives as per Islamic tenets, free from Hindu economic subjugation.

India has all along been trying to harm the newly born Islamic country by all possible means quite frequently. India’s hostile measures against Pakistan included the stoppage of irrigation water supplies in 1951 and the infiltration of the Indian army in the garb of Mukti Bahini into East Pakistan in 1971, leading to the dismemberment of Pakistan and its eastern wing being turned into Bangladesh, among other anti-Pakistan hostilities every now and then. For furthering its ulterior motives of harming Pakistan as much as possible, the Indian rulers in New Delhi have also been resorting to the staging of false flag operations from time to time and blaming Pakistan. False flag operations staged from time to time for achieving these ulterior motives included the Ganga Hijacking, Chittisinghpura Massacre, Samjhota Express, Uri, Pathankot and Pulwama.

It is also a bitter fact that India has all along been resorting to state-sponsored terrorism inside Pakistan in order to further its malicious designs, disrupt its progress, block its economic stability and prevent it from becoming an important member of the Islamic countries’ bloc. India is continuously funding and supporting terrorist groups through Afghan soil for undertaking their nefarious anti-people and anti-armed forces hostile activities inside Pakistan.

India also has a bitter and shameful, ever-lengthening record of not honouring its commitments and obligations under international laws, agreements and undertakings, and of flouting world bodies’ resolutions. This........
