India rejects Imran Khan’s response to Pulwama attack

Date:

New Delhi, Feb 19 (PTI) India Tuesday strongly rejected Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan’s response to its allegations of Islamabad’s involvement in the Pulwama attack, saying disclaiming its link with militants attacks is an oft-repeated excuse by the neighbouring country

In a hard-hitting statement, the Ministry of External Affairs said India was not surprised that Khan refused to acknowledge the attack on India’s security forces in Pulwama as an act of terrorism.

It said the Prime Minister of Pakistan has neither chosen to condemn the heinous act nor condoled with the bereaved families.

“Disclaiming any link between the militant attack and Pakistan is an oft-repeated excuse by Pakistan. The Pakistani Prime Minister has ignored claims made by the Jaish-e-Mohammad, as well as by the militant, who perpetrated this heinous crime,” the MEA said

“It is a well-known fact that Jaish-e-Mohammad and its leader Masood Azhar are based in Pakistan. These should be sufficient proof for Pakistan to take action,” it said

In a video message, Khan Tuesday assured India that he would act against the perpetrators of the Pulwama attack if New Delhi shares “actionable intelligence”, but warned against any “revenge” retaliatory action

Khan responded to the Indian allegations on Pakistan’s involvement in the attack in Kashmir last Thursday that left 49 CRPF personnel dead.
