In a strongly worded statement issued by the Ministry of External Affairs, the official spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal has said Islamabad is once again engaged at attempting “peddling false and malicious anti-India propaganda”.

The MEA’s response came-in after Pakistan attempted to link of deaths of two Pakistan citizens and allegedly blaming India.

On Thursday the 25th of January 2024, Randhir Jaiswal said  – “to blame others for its own misdeeds can neither be a justification nor a solution.”

The MEA said, “As the world knows, Pakistan has long been the epicentre of terrorism, organised crime, and illegal transnational activities”.

“India and many other countries have publicly warned Pakistan, cautioning that it would be consumed by its own culture of terror and violence,” the spokesperson said, adding that “Pakistan will reap what it sows.”.

Earlier in the day various media reports emanating from Pakistan had suggested  quoting Pakistan Foreign Secretary Muhammad Syrus Sajjad Qazi that they  had “credible evidence” of links between what it called “Indian agents” and the assassination of two Pakistani terrorists associated with the Jaish-e-Mohammed and the Lashkar-e-Taiba in Sialkot and Rawalkot last year.
