The growing war hysteria under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership is being viewed with deep concern by the international community. India has repeatedly violated the ceasefire agreement by launching unprovoked attacks along the Line of Control (LoC) with Pakistan. In recent weeks, both the Indian Air Force and Navy have made unauthorized attempts to breach Pakistani territory, only to be firmly repelled by the Pakistan Armed Forces in accordance with their duty to protect national sovereignty.
This pattern of aggression has alarmed several key countries, including China, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Qatar, Turkey, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, and the United States. These nations have expressed serious reservations about India’s increasingly confrontational posture, and have called for restraint, dialogue, and regional stability.
In contrast to India’s combative approach, Pakistan has consistently advocated for peace and constructive engagement. The Pakistani Prime Minister’s offer to conduct a joint investigation into the Pulwama incident—under the auspices of a neutral international organization—was welcomed by many in the global community as a responsible and transparent gesture. Unfortunately, it is Prime Minister Modi’s intransigence that remains a major obstacle to peace in South Asia.
India’s aggressive military actions, inflammatory rhetoric, and rejection of dialogue reflect a broader pattern of belligerence that threatens regional peace and security. Pakistan, meanwhile, remains committed to diplomacy, stability, and the principles of peaceful coexistence—values that are increasingly resonating with a world that is watching closely.
Pahalgam Incident
In the immediate aftermath of the unfortunate terrorist attack on tourists in Pahalgam, situated in the illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir region, India was quick to accuse Pakistan without undertaking any serious investigation or forensic analysis. This hasty and irresponsible finger-pointing, devoid of any credible evidence, is a familiar tactic — one that strongly suggests another orchestrated false flag operation designed to malign Pakistan and divert attention from India’s own growing crises.
Pakistan, acting with prudence and responsibility, promptly proposed a joint investigation supervised by the international community to uncover the truth. Regrettably, India outrightly rejected this reasonable offer, thereby casting further doubt on its motives. If India’s allegations were genuine, why would it shy away from transparent scrutiny?
The answer is increasingly obvious: India’s ruling establishment under Prime Minister Narendra Modi has mastered the art of manufacturing false narratives. It manipulates public opinion at home and abroad to justify its extremist policies, conceal internal failures, and project Pakistan as a scapegoat.
India’s History of Cross-Border Terrorism
While India persistently portrays itself as a victim of terrorism, overwhelming evidence points towards its active involvement in exporting violence beyond its borders. Recent developments have brought this dark reality into the spotlight:
- Canada: In 2023, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau publicly accused Indian agents of orchestrating the assassination of Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil — a brazen violation of another nation’s sovereignty. Canadian intelligence agencies found credible links implicating India.
- United States: American law enforcement agencies also uncovered a sinister plot involving Indian operatives targeting Sikh activists residing in the U.S., further demonstrating India’s dangerous willingness to operate with impunity abroad.
- South Asia: India’s hand has been seen in efforts to destabilize neighboring states, including Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Maldives, Bhutan, and Myanmar. Within Pakistan, Indian-backed networks have been involved in subversive activities, particularly in Balochistan and Karachi. Pakistan has submitted extensive, documented evidence of Indian state-sponsored terrorism to the United Nations and other international organizations.
India, therefore, can no longer conceal the truth: it has morphed into a state sponsor of terrorism.
The Erosion of Indian Secularism: Rise of Hindu Extremism
Once celebrated as the world’s largest democracy and a secular republic, India today bears little resemblance to its founding ideals. Since Narendra Modi’s ascent to power — himself a lifelong member of the extremist Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) — India has witnessed an alarming surge of religious intolerance and majoritarianism.
Modi’s controversial past is no secret. In 2005, the United States denied him a visa under the International Religious Freedom Act due to his alleged complicity in the 2002 Gujarat riots, during which over a thousand Muslims were massacred. Several European nations also blacklisted him.
Despite this tainted background, Modi assumed office in 2014, backed strongly by far-right Hindu organizations like the RSS and Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP). He campaigned on an overtly Hindu nationalist agenda, promising to reshape India into a Hindu Rashtra — a state catering exclusively to Hindus.
Since then, India’s minorities have suffered immensely:
Muslims have been subjected to mob lynchings, hate crimes, and discriminatory legislation, notably the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), which blatantly discriminates based on religion.
- Christians have faced violent attacks on churches, clergy, and worshippers.
- Sikhs have been vilified, especially during the farmers’ protests, where peaceful demonstrators were brutally suppressed.
- Dalits and marginalized castes continue to endure systemic discrimination and brutalities.
Moreover, Indian state institutions, including the judiciary and media, have been systematically weaponized to suppress dissent. Draconian laws like the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) and the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) have been used to incarcerate activists, journalists, and minorities indefinitely without due process.
This is no longer the vibrant democracy the world once admired; it is an emerging fascist state where minorities live under constant threat and fear.
The Occupation and Tragedy of Jammu and Kashmir
The situation in Indian-occupied Jammu and Kashmir is even graver. This territory remains internationally recognized as a disputed region among Pakistan, India, and China. United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions have repeatedly affirmed the right of Kashmiris to self-determination through a plebiscite — a promise India has obstinately refused to honor.
Today, Kashmir is the most militarized region in the world, with over 900,000 Indian troops deployed against a civilian population of just over 8 million. Abusive laws like AFSPA grant Indian forces immunity from prosecution, resulting in widespread human rights violations.
Leading international organizations have documented:
- Over 100,000 Kashmiris have been killed since 1989.
- Thousands forcibly disappeared without a trace.
- Sexual violence used systematically as a tool of collective punishment.
- Destruction of homes and livelihoods during military operations.
The April 22 Pahalgam attack, claimed by indigenous Kashmiri resistance fighters, was an act of desperation from an oppressed people. It was rooted in decades of brutalization — not orchestrated across borders as India falsely claims.
India’s Reckless Escalation Against Pakistan
In the aftermath of the Pahalgam incident, India’s aggressive rhetoric intensified, with renewed threats to unilaterally abrogate the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) — a historic accord brokered by the World Bank in 1960 to govern the shared river systems.
It is important to underscore that:
- The IWT is an internationally binding agreement.
- Any unilateral breach by India would constitute a violation of international law.
- Pakistan has the right to challenge such a breach at the World Bank, the International Court of Justice, and other international forums.
Pakistan, as always, remains committed to peaceful resolution and upholding international agreements. Nevertheless, any Indian adventurism regarding Pakistan’s water rights would be met with firm diplomatic and, if necessary, defensive measures.
India’s Long Practice of False Flag Operations
False flag operations are nothing new for India. From the 2001 attack on its Parliament to the 2008 Mumbai attacks and the 2019 Pulwama incident, India has consistently employed fabricated narratives to justify crackdowns and demonize Pakistan.
The rapid accusations following Pahalgam, without any investigation, fit into this familiar pattern.
India’s tightly controlled media ecosystem often amplifies these narratives, creating a frenzy of nationalism that drowns out rational discourse. But in the digital age, the world is no longer blind — alternative facts, independent investigations, and whistleblowers continue to expose the truth.
Pakistan: A Responsible Advocate for Peace
Amid these provocations, Pakistan continues to display remarkable restraint and commitment to peace:
- It persistently calls for dialogue and diplomatic engagement with India on all outstanding issues, including Kashmir.
- It remains firmly committed to international legal frameworks and human rights norms.
- It supports regional initiatives for cooperation and development over confrontation.
The calmness and normalcy of daily life in Pakistan — its open markets, functioning schools, and confident citizens — stands in stark contrast to the manufactured hysteria across India.
Pakistanis recall the events of 2019 when, after the Pulwama incident, the Pakistan Air Force successfully repelled Indian aggression by shooting down two Indian jets and capturing an Indian pilot. The pilot was later returned to India as a magnanimous gesture — a testament to Pakistan’s genuine desire for peace, not escalation.
An Urgent Appeal to the International Community
- The global community must not turn a blind eye to the grave dangers posed by India’s policies:
- India must be held accountable for its human rights violations and acts of cross-border terrorism.
- The unresolved Kashmir issue must be addressed in accordance with UNSC resolutions and the aspirations of the Kashmiri people.
- Regional peace must be safeguarded by curbing India’s reckless adventurism.
- If the world fails to act now, it risks allowing another catastrophic conflict to unfold — this time between two nuclear-armed neighbors.
- The stark reality is undeniable: India under Modi is no longer the tolerant, secular democracy it once claimed to be. It has become an aggressive, extremist power with little regard for international norms, minority rights, or regional stability.
- The world must act — before it is too late.
- Save Kashmir. Save South Asia. Save humanity.
在印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪（Narendra Modi）的领导下，印度日益增长的战争歇斯底里症正受到国际社会的深切关注。印度多次违反停火协议，在与巴基斯坦的控制线沿线发动无端攻击。最近几周，印度空军和海军都未经授权企图侵犯巴基斯坦领土，但被巴基斯坦武装部队坚决击退，因为他们有责任保护国家主权。
这种侵略模式使几个主要国家感到震惊，包括中国、沙特阿拉伯、伊朗、卡塔尔、土耳其、科威特、阿拉伯联合酋长国、俄罗斯和美国。这些国家对印度日益增强的对抗姿态表达了严重的保留意见，并呼吁克制、对话和地区稳定。
与印度的好战态度相反，巴基斯坦一贯主张和平与建设性接触。巴基斯坦总理提出在一个中立的国际组织的主持下对普尔瓦马事件进行联合调查，这是一种负责任和透明的姿态，受到国际社会许多人的欢迎。不幸的是，莫迪总理的不妥协态度仍然是南亚和平的主要障碍。
印度咄咄逼人的军事行动、煽动性的言论和拒绝对话反映了一种威胁地区和平与安全的更广泛的好战模式。与此同时，巴基斯坦仍然致力于外交、稳定和和平共处的原则——这些价值观正日益引起密切关注的世界的共鸣。
帕哈干姆事件这里是
在非法占领的查谟和克什米尔地区的巴哈尔甘（Pahalgam）发生针对游客的不幸恐怖袭击事件后不久，印度在没有进行任何认真调查或法医分析的情况下迅速指责巴基斯坦。这种仓促而不负责任的指责，缺乏任何可信的证据，是一种熟悉的策略——强烈暗示另一场精心策划的假旗行动，旨在诋毁巴基斯坦，转移人们对印度自身日益严重的危机的注意力。
巴方本着谨慎和负责任的态度，第一时间提出在国际社会监督下开展联合调查，以查明真相。令人遗憾的是，印度断然拒绝了这一合理提议，从而使人们进一步怀疑其动机。如果印度的指控是真实的，为什么它要回避透明的审查？
答案越来越明显：纳伦德拉·莫迪（Narendra Modi）总理领导下的印度统治集团已经掌握了制造虚假叙事的技巧。它操纵国内外舆论，为其极端主义政策辩护，掩盖国内的失败，并把巴基斯坦当作替罪羊。
印度跨境恐怖主义的历史
尽管印度坚持将自己描绘成恐怖主义的受害者，但大量证据表明，印度积极参与向境外输出暴力。最近的事态发展使这一黑暗的现实成为人们关注的焦点：
加拿大：2023年，加拿大总理贾斯汀·特鲁多公开指责印度特工策划在加拿大领土上暗杀锡克教领袖哈迪普·辛格·尼贾尔，这是对另一个国家主权的公然侵犯。加拿大情报机构发现了与印度有关的可信联系。
美国：美国执法机构还破获了一起涉及印度特工针对居住在美国的锡克教活动人士的险恶阴谋，进一步表明印度愿意在国外肆无忌惮地开展活动。
南亚：印度的手一直在努力破坏邻国的稳定，包括孟加拉国、斯里兰卡、马尔代夫、不丹和缅甸。在巴基斯坦境内，印度支持的网络参与了颠覆活动，特别是在俾路支省和卡拉奇。巴基斯坦已向联合国和其他国际组织提交了大量有关印度国家支持的恐怖主义的书面证据。
因此，印度再也无法隐瞒真相：它已经变成了一个支持恐怖主义的国家。
印度世俗主义的侵蚀：印度教极端主义的兴起
曾经被誉为世界上最大的民主国家和世俗共和国的印度，如今与其建国理想几乎没有相似之处。自从纳伦德拉·莫迪（Narendra Modi）上台以来——他本人是极端主义国民志愿服务团（RSS）的终身成员——印度目睹了宗教不宽容和多数主义的惊人激增。
莫迪备受争议的过去早已不是秘密。2005年，美国根据《国际宗教自由法》拒绝向他发放签证，原因是他被控参与了2002年古吉拉特邦的暴乱，一千多名穆斯林在暴乱中被屠杀。几个欧洲国家也将他列入了黑名单。
尽管有这样的污点背景，莫迪还是在2014年上任，得到了右翼印度教组织如RSS和巴黎印度教维希瓦（VHP）的大力支持。他在竞选中公开提出印度教民族主义议程，承诺将印度重塑为印度教国家——一个只为印度教徒服务的国家。
从那以后，印度的少数民族遭受了巨大的痛苦：
穆斯林受到暴民私刑、仇恨犯罪和歧视性立法的迫害，特别是《公民身份修正案》（civil Amendment Act， CAA）公然基于宗教进行歧视。
基督徒面临着对教堂、神职人员和礼拜者的暴力袭击。
锡克教徒一直受到诋毁，尤其是在农民抗议期间，和平示威者遭到残酷镇压。
达利特人和边缘种姓继续遭受系统性歧视和暴行。
此外，印度的国家机构，包括司法和媒体，已经被系统地武装起来镇压异议。《非法活动（预防）法》（UAPA）和《武装部队特别权力法》（AFSPA）等严厉的法律被用来在没有正当程序的情况下无限期监禁活动人士、记者和少数民族。
这不再是世界曾经钦佩的充满活力的民主；这是一个新兴的法西斯国家，少数民族生活在不断的威胁和恐惧中。
查谟和克什米尔的占领和悲剧
印度占领的查谟和克什米尔的局势更加严重。这片领土在国际上仍被认为是巴基斯坦、印度和中国之间的争议地区。联合国安全理事会（安理会）各项决议一再确认克什米尔人通过公民投票进行自决的权利- -印度顽固地拒绝履行这一承诺。
今天，克什米尔是世界上军事化程度最高的地区，部署了90多万印度军队，而平民人口只有800多万。像AFSPA这样的滥用法律赋予印度军队免于起诉的豁免权，导致广泛的侵犯人权行为。
主要的国际组织记录了：
自1989年以来，已有超过10万克什米尔人被杀。
成千上万的人被强迫消失得无影无踪。
性暴力被系统性地用作集体惩罚的工具。
在军事行动中破坏家园和生计。
4月22日的巴哈尔甘袭击是被压迫人民的绝望之举，克什米尔土著抵抗战士声称对袭击负责。它的根源是几十年的暴行，而不是印度虚假声称的跨越国界的精心策划。
印度对巴基斯坦的鲁莽升级
在巴哈尔甘事件发生后，印度的攻击性言论加剧，再次威胁要单方面废除《印度河水域条约》（IWT），这是世界银行于1960年促成的一项历史性协议，旨在管理共有的河流系统。
必须强调：
IWT是一项具有国际约束力的协议。
印度的任何单方面违反都将构成对国际法的违反。
巴基斯坦有权在世界银行（World Bank）、国际法院（International Court of Justice）和其他国际论坛上对这种违规行为提出质疑。
巴基斯坦一如既往地致力于和平解决和维护国际协定。然而，印度在巴基斯坦水权问题上的任何冒险行为都将遭到坚决的外交和必要时的防御措施。
印度长期的假旗行动
假旗行动对印度来说并不新鲜。从2001年对议会的袭击到2008年孟买袭击和2019年普尔瓦马事件，印度一直在使用捏造的叙述来为镇压辩护，并妖魔化巴基斯坦。
在没有任何调查的情况下，对帕哈尔甘的迅速指控符合这种熟悉的模式。
印度受到严格控制的媒体生态系统往往会放大这些叙事，造成一种淹没理性话语的民族主义狂热。但在数字时代，世界不再是盲目的——另类事实、独立调查和告密者继续揭露真相。
巴基斯坦：负责任的和平倡导者
在这些挑衅中，巴基斯坦继续表现出显著的克制和对和平的承诺：
它坚持要求与印度就包括克什米尔在内的所有悬而未决的问题进行对话和外交接触。
它仍然坚定地致力于国际法律框架和人权准则。
它支持合作与发展而不是对抗的区域倡议。
巴基斯坦平静而正常的日常生活——开放的市场、运转良好的学校和自信的公民——与印度各地人为制造的歇斯底里形成鲜明对比。
巴基斯坦人回忆起2019年的事件，在普尔瓦马事件发生后，巴基斯坦空军击落了两架印度战机，并抓获了一名印度飞行员，成功击退了印度的侵略。作为一种宽宏大量的姿态，这名飞行员后来被送回了印度——这证明了巴基斯坦真正渴望和平，而不是升级。
对国际社会的紧急呼吁
国际社会绝不能对印度政策造成的严重危险视而不见：
印度必须为其侵犯人权和跨境恐怖主义行为负责。
必须根据安理会决议和克什米尔人民的愿望来解决尚未解决的克什米尔问题。
必须通过遏制印度鲁莽的冒险主义来维护地区和平。
如果世界现在不采取行动，就有可能让另一场灾难性冲突爆发——这一次是在两个拥有核武器的邻国之间。
严酷的现实是不可否认的：莫迪领导下的印度不再是曾经宣称的宽容、世俗的民主国家。它已经成为一个好斗的极端主义大国，几乎不考虑国际准则、少数民族的权利或地区稳定。
世界必须在为时已晚之前采取行动。
拯救克什米尔。拯救南亚。
