New Delhi – “Pak’s name should not be used to gain political advantage in elections. Indian leaders should stop making false claims about Jammu and Kashmir”, said Zahra Baloch, spokesperson of Pakistan’s foreign ministry. On 26th April, she made the above claims in a press conference and said that Indian leaders should stop using Pakistan’s name in their speeches and opinions. She rejected all claims of Indian leaders about Jammu and Kashmir.
Zahra Baloch further said that Indian leaders’ inflammatory speeches on Jammu and Kashmir have been on the rise for some time now. This is very worrying. Their statements are motivated by nationalism. This may threaten the peace of the region. Indian claims are contrary to historical and legal facts.
