The OIC has allowed Pakistan to misuse it to subvert its own Agenda. OIC members must decide whether it is in their best interest to allow Pakistan to do so “.
India also took on Pakistan in the human rights council and First Secretary Badhe in India said: “It has become customary for Pakistan to smear my country with false narratives fabricated for their malicious selfish purposes.
“Neither India nor others deserve this unsolicited conference on human rights from a country that has consistently persecuted its ethnic and religious minorities, is an epicenter of terrorism, has the distinction of providing pensions to people on the UN sanctions list. and it has a Prime Minister who takes pride in admitting to having trained tens of thousands of terrorists to fight in Jammu and Kashmir.
“It is not surprising that other relevant multilateral institutions have expressed serious concerns about their failure to stop the financing of terrorism and the lack of effective action against all terrorist entities in Pakistan,” said First Secretary Badhe.
India also raised issues of state-supported persecution in Pakistani-occupied Kashmir, Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. In its response, India also highlighted attacks on liberal voices and journalists in Pakistan.
Badhe said: “The nefarious Pakistani designs continue in Pakistan in occupied parts of the Indian Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh. The massive influx of outsiders has reduced the number of Kashmiris to a negligible number in Pakistani-occupied parts. of the Indian Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Laddakh.
“Thousands of Sikh, Hindu and minority Christian women and girls have been victims of kidnappings, forced marriages and conversions in Pakistan. The plight of those subjected to their subjugation is well represented by the situation in Baluchistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Sindh. It is not a single day that a family in Balochistan does not find their members detained or abducted by the Pakistani security forces, “he said.
Pakistan does well when it comes to intimidation and attacks against journalists, human rights defenders and political dissidents, particularly by its state machinery. It is not without reason that international organizations have singled out Pakistan as a country where journalists are murdered and their murderers go free, “Badhe added.
