Pakistan has strongly criticized India’s Defense Minister Rajnath Singh for his recent comments, where he stated that India would pursue individuals escaping over the border into Pakistan after attempting attacks. This statement follows a report by The Guardian claiming India had killed around 20 people in Pakistan since 2020 as part of an anti-terrorism strategy. Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned these remarks, calling them provocative and expressing concerns that they undermine regional peace and hinder future engagement. The tense relationship between India and Pakistan has escalated due to past incidents attributing attacks to each other. Pakistan has accused India of carrying out killings on its soil, while Canada and the United States have also made similar accusations against India. India has denied these allegations, stating they are false and motivated by propaganda, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi committing to investigating any related information.
