Pahalgam Terrorist Attack: A Tense Situation Unfolds
The capital buzzed with anxiety on Thursday, mere days after the chilling terrorist attack in Pahalgam, claiming at least 26 innocent lives. A man, cluelessly strolling towards the Pakistan High Commission with a cake, ignited passionate discussions on social media, causing furor over the meaning and timing of his gesture.
In the wake of public outrage and diplomatic uproar, a crowd of protesters converged outside the mission, vocalizing their anger with chants of "Pakistan Haye Haye." A rapidly spreading video on social media showcased the man and his cake-inducing heated debates questioning the insensitivity of the action.
One user on X commented, "A cake, a quiet media, and a timing that stings-if this isn't a celebration, why the secrecy? Disgraceful optics at the Pakistan High Commission." Another sarcastically remarked, "I'm on the lookout for a flat in Delhi, maybe I'll lease the Pakistan High Commission."
India Strikes Back: Expelling Pakistani Military Advisors, Closing Attari Post
The Indian government has retaliated ferociously against the Pahalgam attack, which India holds the Resistance Front responsible for, suspected as a Lashkar-e-Taiba proxy. The Indian government has declared Pakistan's military advisors stationed in New Delhi, persona non grata, requiring them to leave the country within a week.
Further actions were taken as well; India shut down the Attari Integrated Check Post, allowing only those with valid endorsements prior to May 1 to return. Additionally, India has barred the Government of Pakistan’s official report on the incident from within the country.
Pakistan Stands Firm: Emergency Meeting over Indus Water Treaty Suspension
In response, Pakistan convened an emergency meeting of the National Security Committee under Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, addressing India's decision to suspend sections of the Indus Water Treaty. The committee will ponder over both domestic and foreign implications of India's "hasty, impulsive, and impractical" move, as stated by the state broadcaster Radio Pakistan.
Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar also noted India's immature and irrational behavior, stating, "India has not shown any maturity in its response. This is a non-serious approach." With tensions in diplomatic ties straining, the cake incident has added fuel to an intensifying bilateral crisis.
