Bengaluru: India has exposed Pakistan at the UN Human Rights Council as it has accused Pakistan of delisting 4000 terrorists to sustain its terror ecosystem and of using training camps and terrorist launch pads in PoK for ramping up cross-border terrorism, as reported by Times of India.
It quoted the government as saying that none of Pakistan’s "vile accusations" against India could stifle the voice of the minorities and the people under its subjugation.
"The fate of religious and ethnic minorities is well known when beheading is the only option in Pakistan in exchange for freedom of religion," said Pawan Badhe, first secretary with Indian permanent mission in Geneva, exercising India's right of reply after Pakistan again raised the issue of alleged human rights violations in India.
The website added the official as saying various international organisations had termed Pakistan as the killing fields for minorities and that the Ahmadis remained the most persecuted community in Pakistan under the aegis of "the so-called Constitution of Pakistan".
Further, it added Badhe as saying Pakistan’s "deceit and hypocrisy" was best demonstrated when it orchestrated mass influx to Pakistan-occupied parts of Indian Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh through discriminatory domicile laws.
"It’s baffling that there are three outsiders for every 4 in the Pakistan-occupied parts of Indian Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh. While civil, political and constitutional rights are non-existent in Pakistan-occupied parts of Indian Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh, deliberate economic policies have also subjugated them to a life of extreme poverty," he said.
"In contrast, full-scale training camps and launch pads of terrorists are being escalated (sic) in Pakistan-occupied parts of Indian Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh at great expense for sustaining cross border terrorism against India. It’s not without reason that Pakistan remains a safe harbour for terrorists. While the world is busy combating the Covid-19 pandemic, Pakistan hoodwinks the world to allow delisting more than 4000 proscribed terrorists to sustain its terror ecosystem," added the official.
In scathing counter-attack on the human rights issue, the official also said it was deplorable that Pakistan had institutionalised enforced disappearance as a tool of subjugation against dissent and criticism not just against individuals but against the entire society.
"Children as young as 12 years old in Baluchistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Sindh are normally abducted and trained to be suicide bombers," he said.
