Calling accusations baseless, India today categorically rejected allegations made by Pakistan blaming it for attack on a military base in Karachi that left four paramilitary personnel dead. India asked to look inwards and take action against terrorists on its own soil.
In response to media queries, External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal on Sunday said that instead of pointing fingers at others, Pakistan should look inwards and take credible action against the terror infrastructure on its territory. He said Pakistan should rid itself of its proclivity to rely on terrorism as an instrument of state policy. Pakistan should focus on dismantling terror infrastructure operating from its own soil rather than pointing fingers at others, Jaiswal said.
The statement came a day after heavily armed militants attacked a Sindh Rangers compound in Karachi, triggering a fierce gun battle that left four paramilitary personnel dead.According to Pakistani authorities, the assault took place on Saturday evening when militants stormed the Sindh Rangers' Bhittai Wing headquarters in the Gulistan-e-Jauhar area of Karachi. Security officials said the attackers rammed a vehicle through the main gate before entering the premises and hurling grenades, causing multiple explosions.
Reports from Islamabad said Pakistani security forces killed six terrorists and captured another alive after foiling a brazen attack by militants on a Sindh Rangers compound in Karachi on Saturday night.The attack left four paramilitary personnel dead and marked the city's first major terrorist strike since October 2024. Certain elements in the Pakistani establishment alleged an Indian link to the attack.
"We have seen Pakistani reports making baseless allegations against India regarding the recent incident in Karachi," External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said……We categorically reject them. Instead of pointing fingers at others, Pakistan would do better to look inwards, take credible action against the terror infrastructure on its territory and rid itself of its proclivity to rely on terrorism as an instrument of state policy," he said.
Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi has strongly condemned the attack and alleged, without proof, an Indian link to the strike.
