"We are closely monitoring the situation," said Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal.

"Three things are clear first, Pakistan hosts terrorist organisations and sponsors terrorist activities; second, it is an old practice of Pakistan to blame its neighbours for its own internal failures; and third, Pakistan is infuriated with Afghanistan exercising sovereignty over its own territories," the spokesperson said.
