India says it will continue fight against all forms of terrorism
The statement was made in the wake of Pakistan dismissing the busting of an ISI-backed terror network as propaganda aimed at diverting attention from domestic security challenges.
India has pledged to persist in combating all forms of terrorism, including cross-border attacks, following Pakistan's denial of allegations linking the country to the apprehension of a terrorist network. Home Minister Amit Shah announced the dismantling of the ISI-backed "Shahzad Bhatti Network," with over 250 suspects arrested ahead of Independence Day, stating that the government will continue to take necessary actions to eliminate the threat of terrorism.
Pakistan's Foreign Ministry dismissed Shah's claims, emphasizing that the Indian government has expressed its stance on the matter. External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal highlighted India's vulnerability to terrorism, noting that the nation has taken extensive measures to rally global action against the issue. The busting of the Shahzad Bhatti Network was a result of coordinated security operations in 14 Indian states, resulting in the seizure of explosives, weapons, and surveillance equipment.
Jaiswal addressed the ongoing protests in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, attributing the unrest to the Pakistani forces' crackdown, resulting in casualties and injuries. He called for international sympathy and solidarity towards the affected population.
