‘Orchestrated campaign’: Pakistan passes resolution over India linking Pahalgam terror attack with Islamabad | India News
NEW DELHI: Pakistan Senate on Friday unanimously passed a resolution against India rejecting the accusations of being involved in the Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir that killed 26 people.
It condemned the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government and said that it “rejects all frivolous and baseless attempts to link Pakistan with the Pahalgam Attack of 22nd April 2025 in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir”.
“The House unanimously passed a resolution condemning all forms of terrorism and its manifestations,” the Senate of Pakistan said in a post on X.
“The Senate of Pakistan condemns the orchestrated and mala fide campaign by the Indian government to malign Pakistan, which follows a familiar pattern of exploiting the issue of terrorism for a narrow political goal,” it added.
It warned that the nation “remains fully capable and prepared to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity against any aggression, including water terrorism or military provocation as clearly demonstrated by its robust and valiant response to India’s reckless actions in February 2019; and any misadventure by India will be met with a firm, swift and decisive response”.
The resolution follows a National Security Committee (NSC) meeting in Pakistan, held a day earlier, where top civilian and military leaders decided to suspend the Simla Agreement and other bilateral accords with India. They also halted all trade and closed airspace to Indian airlines.
These actions mirrored India’s response to the Pahalgam terror attack, which included suspending the Indus Water Treaty and downgrading diplomatic ties with Pakistan on Wednesday.
Islamabad took several retaliatory steps, including closing the Wagah border post, cancelling visas granted to Indians under the Saarc Visa Exemption Scheme (SVES), and ordering military advisers at the Indian High Commission to leave.
Meanwhile, Union home minister Amit Shah chaired a meeting to discuss the future course of action on the Indus Waters Treaty.
