Indian govt’s ambition to divide Pakistan a lunatic’s dream: Nisar

December 14, 2016

Says BJP govt’s hands stained with blood of Kashmiris; state oppression its policy; India turned into a battlefield; Dalits, Christians and other minorities being denied rights; Zardari, Rehman Malik condemn Rajnath’s statement

ISLAMABAD: Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan said on Monday the BJP-led Indian government’s ambition to divide Pakistan was a lunatic’s dream that would never be fulfilled.

Reacting to the threat of Indian Home Minister Rajnath Singh that “Pakistan will splinter into 10 pieces”, Nisar said in the presence of BJP, nobody else had to make an effort to divide India on the basis of religion.

He said Pakistan was not dividing India on the basis of religion but it was getting divided due to the policies of the BJP government. “How a party and government in India, which was based on religious fanaticism, divisiveness, hate and violence, can level allegations against Pakistan,” he asked.

He said the Indian government could not talk of terrorism, as its hands were stained with the blood of Kashmiris and state oppression was its policy. Those who were calling for Hindu-Muslim brotherhood should look at their past and present and see how the state machinery was used to shed the blood of Kashmiris and how Muslims, Dalits, Christians and other minorities were denied rights in India, he added.  The minister said the reality was that at present under the BJP government all minorities were in great danger and fearful as life was made difficult for them.

The government of India created a wall of hate among different religions for its nefarious designs, he added. Nisar said India had turned into a battlefield and the incident of Babri Masjid and anti-Muslim and anti-minorities riots in India in the last few years were a clear indication of the present government’s political and official policy.

He said under state patronage, opponents were tortured, faces of people were blackened and minorities were killed in India.  “These anti-minority policies of the Indian government have scared Muslims and other minorities,” he added.

Nisar said the cause of terrorism was not Pakistan but India where human rights were violated and oppression and violence, and religious hatred were part of state policy.  “Instead of criticising Pakistan, India should focus on those organizations which were spreading hatred, religious prejudice and committing genocide of minorities.”

Nisar said India had admitted to its open interference in Balochistan and other parts of the country.  “The arrest of Kulbhushan Yadav and other agents was a clear proof of this interference, but it was unfortunate that the international community was silent on this provocation and open meddling,” he added.

He said Pakistan wanted peace and domination of India and violent policies of present Indian government were not acceptable and on this matter the Pakistani nation was united.  “Today if the rulers of India open their eyes, then they could see that their policies are dividing India and uniting the Pakistani nation against these policies, he concluded.

APP adds: PPPP President Asif Ali Zardari Tuesday strongly condemned Indian Home Minister’s Rajnath Singh’s anti-Pakistan statement. In a meeting with former interior minister Rehman Malik in Dubai, Asif Zardari said Pakistan was fully capable of responding to Indian aggression.

The PPPP leaders exchanged views on the current political situation in the country and also discussed the party’s future strategy. They also reviewed the government and the opposition’s performance in the current political scenario.

In a statement, Rehman Malik said the anti-Muslim policy would divide India into pieces. He said Rajnath was giving statements against Pakistan in an attempt to divert attention from the oppression committed against Muslims in the Indian Held Kashmir and other states.

He said the international community should take notice of barbarism unleashed by the government of Narendra Modi. He said the government should vigorously respond to the statement of Indian Home Minister against Pakistan.

“Indian agency RAW is involved in terrorism in Pakistan,” he said, adding that Kulbhushan Yadav was arrested for promoting terrorism in Pakistan. He said the speeches of Modi in Dhaka University and on India’s Independence Day had made it clear that India did not want peace in the region.
