Sneha Dubey accused Pakistan of sheltering and glorifying al-Qaeda mastermind Osama bin Laden. She also stated that the minorities in Pakistan live in constant fear of state-sponsored suppression of their rights.

As for PM Khan raising the Kashmir issue at UNGA, Sneha Dubey maintained that it is India’s internal matter.

“Let me reiterate here that the entire Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh were, are, and will always be an integral and inalienable part of India.” Dubey declared.

Reacting to the Indian claim, Saima Saleem, said, “India remains in occupation of an internationally recognized disputed territory whose final disposition needs to be decided in accordance with the democratic principle of a free and impartial plebiscite under UN auspices, as provided for under numerous resolutions of the Security Council.”

India regurgitates stale arguments: Saima Saleem

In a hard-hitting statement, Saima Saleem said India’s use of the canard of terrorism, regurgitating stale arguments is typical of all occupiers.

She then went on to highlight India’s involvement in 4 different types of terrorism. Firstly, India resorted to “state terrorism” to suppress the people of Indian Illegally Occupied in Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).

Secondly, India funded and supported terrorist organizations like the TTP which conducts numerous cross-border terrorist attacks against Pakistan. In this regard, Saima Saleem recalled the Doval doctrine.

Thirdly, India financed and organized mercenary terrorist organizations against Pakistan to impede the economic growth and prosperity of the region. For this, she cited the capture of Indian spy Kulbhushan Jadhav.

Lastly, India’s supremacist ideology mainstreamed Islamophobia and bigotry against minorities, particularly Muslims.

However, Saima Saleem did not stop here. She further stated that Indian atrocities in IIOJK are well documented by credible international organizations, including the UN High Commission on Human Rights.

“If India has nothing to hide, it must accept a UN Commission of Inquiry and agree to implement the Security Council resolutions stipulating a plebiscite to enable the people of Jammu and Kashmir to exercise their right to self-determination,” the Pakistani delegate added.

As a result of her strong words, Saima Saleem made the nation proud.
