‘Harbours most dubious track record’: India criticizes Pakistan’s remarks at UN

India’s UN Envoy, Ambassador Ruchira Kamboj, reprimanded Pakistan for its remarks at the United Nations General Assembly meeting on the ‘Culture of Peace.’ In this gathering, Pakistan’s UN Envoy, Munir Akram, made several points against India and other religions regarding Kashmir, the Citizenship Act and the Ram Temple in Ayodhya.

Commenting on these remarks, Kamboj criticized Pakistan’s right to say these things and asked the country to hold to some modesty and dignity in them. She further asked whether ‘the principles of mutual respect are too much to ask from Pakistan’ and was reminded of what she called a “dubious track record”.

During her response, Kamboj repeated India’s support for a ‘two-state solution’ for Israel and Palestine at the United Nations. She stressed that terrorism destroys the culture of peace by encouraging dissension and hatred, which directly contradicts global principles of respect and harmony.

The Indian envoy encouraged healthy discourse and underlined the need for religious tolerance and diversity. She emphasized the growing number of attacks on sacred sites around the world and urged people to work together to address these issues.

Kamboj emphasized India’s dedication to peace, citing Mahatma Gandhi’s Ahimsa theory as a foundation for its approach. She emphasized India’s longstanding appreciation of variety, citing its history as the birthplace and stronghold of numerous religions.

Kamboj advocated for cooperation in addressing threats to religious harmony and sacred places, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing these issues in policy discussions and international interactions.

The exchange at the UN highlights ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan over a range of issues, including Kashmir and terrorism. Both countries have a history of throwing barbs and accusations at international forums.

As geopolitical tensions persist, diplomatic contacts like this are crucial for shaping global conversation. India’s answer reflects its commitment to diplomacy and respect in dealing with global issues.

The controversy emphasizes the complexities of international relations, as well as the significance of developing discussion and understanding between states.

Overall, the UN interaction serves as a reminder of the complexities of South Asian geopolitics, as well as the importance of constructive collaboration in addressing common concerns.
