UNITED NATIONS: Pakistan at the United Nations said that India was pushing the Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and Jamaat-ul-Ahrar (JUA) in the cross-border terrorist attacks against Pakistani military and civilian targets.

“Over the last decade, thousands of Pakistanis have been killed or injured as a result of these Indian-sponsored terrorist attacks,” said Pakistani diplomat Jehanzeb Khan in Pakistan’s Right to Reply at the Sixth Committee General Debate during 75th Session of the UN General Assembly in New York.

He said India had used terrorism as an instrument of its coercive policies against every one of its neighbors, especially Pakistan and against its own Muslim population particularly in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K).

The Pakistani diplomat said the reign of state terrorism in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir had done little to frustrate the indigenous and legitimate struggle of Kashmiris for their inalienable right to self-determination.

He said no amount of extra-judicial killings in fake encounters could ever take away the desire for freedom from the oppressed people of Kashmir.

Jehanzeb Khan said India was financing and organizing secret mercenary terrorist organizations based outside our borders to conduct attacks in Pakistan to impede the implementation of the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).

He said India’s Hindu supremacist organizations, especially the fascist RSS, had, for decades, preached the violent suppression of India’s 180 million Muslims.
