Pakistan on Sunday rejected fresh allegations from Indian External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, who had claimed that Pakistan’s “ideological hostility” toward New Delhi was driven by its military establishment. Islamabad said the remarks were part of a propaganda campaign aimed at maligning Pakistan’s state institutions and distracting from India’s own destabilising actions in the region.

Responding to the comments, Foreign Office spokesperson Tahir Andrabi said Jaishankar’s statements were “inflammatory and baseless.” He asserted that Pakistan’s institutions, including its armed forces, were responsible actors committed to protecting national security. Andrabi said the May 2025 confrontation had already demonstrated Pakistan’s capability and professionalism in countering Indian aggression responsibly and effectively.

He added that India’s attempts to target Pakistan’s leadership were meant to divert attention from its own actions, including what Pakistan describes as state-sponsored terrorism. Andrabi urged New Delhi to confront the “Hindutva-driven extremism” that has fuelled mob violence and discrimination across India. He warned that India’s leadership had become hostage to this ideology, undermining regional peace.

The two nuclear-armed neighbours, who have fought three wars since 1947, recently saw another brief escalation in May 2025 before a US-brokered ceasefire. Pakistan reiterated its willingness for dialogue, though India declined talks.
