NEW DELHI: Pakistan interior minister Syed Mohsin Naqvi chose the country's economy as a tool to hit back at India after the latter accused it of being involved in the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people. Reiterating the views of other Pakistani minister, Naqvi demanded an independent probe into the incident.
"Pakistan’s economic stability is intolerable for India," Naqvi said as quoted by The Express Tribune. "The world must see how the country that claims to be the largest democracy is using terrorism to achieve its objectives," he said.
He called the terror attack a "drama" and said, "It is astonishing that an FIR (First Information Report) was registered within ten minutes of the incident. Normally, a crime scene is sealed off for several hours for investigation."
Naqvi accused the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) and Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) of being "interconnected," asserting that evidence ties India to terrorist activities in Pakistan’s Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provinces.
"We have proposed to India to conduct a transparent investigation into the Pahalgam and Jaffarabad incidents. We are ready to present evidence to a neutral committee," he said.
Meanwhile, India has assured to bring the victims of the attack to justice and taken strong measures to curtail terrorist activities across the country. It has suspended the Indus Water Treaty, closed off its borders and cut off trade ties with Pakistan.
