India has launched a scathing attack on Pakistan over its statement on the Ayodhya verdict saying that the nation is merely spewing lies for self-serving mendacious propaganda. India further added that Pakistan's statement is nothing but a farrago of distortions and misrepresentations.
Slamming Pakistan, India firmly said that the world doesn't need lessons on human rights of minorities from a country whose own citizens, as well as minorities, have never enjoyed true democracy.
Speaking on Thursday at the Human Right Council’s 12th Session of the Forum on Minority Issues, Vimarsh Aryan, the First Secretary in India’s permanent mission to the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) stated, "This forum is meant to deliberate upon crucial Human Rights issues of minorities. But instead of adhering to that objective, Pakistan is merely spewing lies for self-serving mendacious propaganda that was evident in its statement which was nothing but a farrago of distortions and misrepresentations."
"We ask Pakistan that instead of squandering the opportunity to deliberate upon rights of minorities by disinforming and miseducating this forum, work constructively and positively for education and upliftment of minorities in Pakistan. The world does not need lessons on human rights of minorities from a country whose own citizens, as well as minorities, have never enjoyed true democracy," further stated Aryan.India exercised its Right of Reply in response to the statement by Pakistan in the forum.
