Straight Talk on Operation Sindoor: India Denounces Pakistan's Missile Claims
Pakistan Army spokesperson's assertion about Indian missiles impacting Afghanistan discredited by MEA as absurd: 'ridiculous assertion'
India's lately held press conference on Operation Sindoor was loud and clear - all the accusations made by Pakistan were flat-out lies. The Foreign Secretary, Vikram Misri, boldly stated that not a single Indian missile had touched Afghan soil.
"You've got to be kidding me! They're peddling this preposterous story that Indian missiles hit Afghanistan. It's nothing but a figment of their overactive imagination. Let me make this crystal clear - there has been no strike on Afghan soil from the Indian side," said Misri.
Pakistan's allegations about attacking and destroying various military bases and facilities were dismissed as "fabrications" by Misri. He also clarified that there was no cyberattack launched by Pakistan on India and no power grid failures, as claimed.
"I suggest you all stop being hoodwinked by this ridiculous tale spun by Pakistan for their own nefarious purposes," Misri cautioned.
It's worth noting that the tension between India and Pakistan has been escalating recently, with repeated transgressions of their previously agreed military understandings[1]. India has been enforcing a firm stance to defend its borders and take decisive action in response to these violations.
Pakistan has been implicated in targeting civilians, especially in Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab, and attempting to sow discord between communities in India[1]. Ironically, the spokesperson of the Pakistani Army, Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, has a pedigree tainted by terrorism. His father, Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood, is a UN-designated global terrorist with known links to Al-Qaeda and believed to have provided critical information to Osama bin Laden about chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons[1].
In a nutshell:- Operation Sindoor is ongoing, with recent incidents involving transgressions of agreed border or ceasefire understandings.- India has responded firmly to these transgressions and demanded that Pakistan take responsible action to stabilize the situation.- Official Indian statements have not publicly confirmed or denied specific responses to Pakistan's allegations about Indian missile strikes in Afghanistan[1].
This shows India's commitment to border security, diplomatic pressure, and holding its ground, while keeping mum on specific missile strike allegations related to Afghanistan at the moment.
