India blasts Pak's 'delusional tirade' on Kashmir at UNSC

IN a heated exchange at the United Nations Security Council on the subject of “Women, Peace and Security,” India launched a fierce counterattack against Pakistan’s attempts to internationalise the Kashmir issue, accusing Islamabad of hiding behind what it called “misdirection and hyperbole.” India also invoked one of the darkest chapters in South Asian history, the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War, to spotlight Pakistan.

India’s Permanent Representative to the UN Parvathaneni Harish, dismissed Pakistan’s Kashmir rhetoric as another “delusional tirade.” He asserted that India’s record on the Women, Peace and Security agenda is “unblemished and unscathed.”
