The areas with a Muslim majority became Pakistan, and areas with a Hindu majority became India. Before the British colonialization, the sub-continent was ruled by Muslims for almost 800 years. Overall, Muslims were in minority and they have accepted the smaller areas such as Pakistan, which is almost one-sixth of India. Being self-content, Pakistan was satisfied and had no ill-feeling against India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, India, since the beginning has not accepted the partition and was keeping ill feelings toward Pakistan. Just after one year, in 1948, the Indian army entered Kashmir and seized two-thirds of Kashmir, as occupied Kashmir. There have been four wars between the two rivals and outnumbered border clashes of various magnitudes. India planned several conspiracies to finish Pakistan but failed to do so for the last seven decades. But have not accepted the existence of Pakistan, from the core of heart and always trying to harm it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>India is using ugly media to defame Pakistan,  spreading fake news, fabricated narratives, and distorting Pakistan\u2019s image. India&#8217;s leadership is in habit of giving irresponsible statements against Pakistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response to a recent statement by the Indian defense minister, Pakistan expressed that it is \u201cfully prepared\u201d to respond to Indian aggression, but will continue to act responsibly and work to promote peace. Pakistani leadership is visionary and understands the consequences. Genetically Pakistan is a peace-loving nation, but very vigilant to safeguard its national security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhile fully prepared to respond to India\u2019s provocations and irresponsible behavior, Pakistan will continue to act responsibly and contribute to all efforts for promoting peace,\u201d read a statement issued by the Foreign Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It said that Pakistan \u201cstrongly rejects highly irresponsible, provocative and gratuitous remarks by the Indian Defense Minister threatening Pakistan\u201d. On Saturday Indian Defense Minister Rajnath Singh said: \u201cPakistan makes all efforts to destabilize peace in India but we have sent a clear message to them that we will hit back.\u201d \u201cThis is a new and powerful India,\u201d Singh added while addressing a public gathering in Uttarakhand\u2019s Pithoragarh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Foreign Office, in its statement, said that his unfounded remarks \u201care delusional on the one hand, and reflective of India\u2019s characteristic hostility towards its neighbors on the other\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIndia\u2019s smear campaign against Pakistan has been exposed and discredited. It has no takers in the international community,\u201d said the statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Foreign Office said that it is no secret that Indian leaders \u201cengage in falsehoods and fantasies while pointing fingers at neighbors including Pakistan\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not the first time that India is giving such sarcastic remarks about Pakistan. In past, whenever India is facing internal pressures, they use similar tactics to divert the public attention. This time, India wants to divert the attention of the international community from the widespread violations of human rights and international humanitarian law committed by Indian occupation forces in Indian-controlled Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIndian occupation forces have been committing egregious human rights violations and grave crimes against innocent Kashmiris in India-occupied Jammu Kashmir including extra-judicial killings, custodial deaths, torture, arbitrary detentions, using people including innocent children as a human shield, and collective punishment by demolishing homes,\u201d the statement underscored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It went on to state that the Dossier presented by Pakistan to the international community in September 2021 \u201ccontains incontrovertible evidence of the gross and systematic human rights violations and crimes against humanity by Indian occupation forces in India-occupied Jammu and Kashmir\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Foreign Office said that the Indian government\u2019s frustration is evident from the fact that despite its unabated state-terrorism in India-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, it has \u201cutterly failed to silence the peaceful voices of Kashmiris\u201d demanding their right to self-determination promised to them by the United Nations Security Council in its various resolutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tellingly, tensions in Kashmir remained on a knife-edge Saturday after a shootout by the Indian authorities this week left four people dead, with families alleging the gunfight was staged and that police used innocent civilians as a \u201chuman shield\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police initially described the incident, which took place last Monday when officers raided a shopping complex, as a counter-insurgency operation in which two \u2018militants\u2019 and their associates had been killed in a shootout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The families of three of the men, however, have accused Indian forces of cold-blooded murder and the case has sent ripples of outrage across Kashmir, a region scarred by familiar allegations of extrajudicial killings. India\u2019s top regional official has called an inquiry into the deaths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thousands of people, including civilians, have been killed in the violence. Human rights groups have accused Indian forces, which operate with legal impunity, of abuses including rape, torture, and staging gunfights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Citizens and rights activists have also decried an increasing denial of civil liberties in Kashmir since the region was stripped of its semi-autonomous status in August 2019, taken under the full control of the central government, and divided into federally controlled territories of India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>India regularly accuses Pakistan of sponsoring or facilitating armed groups operating on the other\u2019s soil. Such accusations have increased in frequency and tenor since 2014 when Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s right-wing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was elected to power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Original Link:- <a href=\"https:\/\/moderndiplomacy.eu\/2021\/11\/26\/india-wanted-to-divert-public-attention-from-domestic-issues-by-accusing-pakistan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/moderndiplomacy.eu\/2021\/11\/26\/india-wanted-to-divert-public-attention-from-domestic-issues-by-accusing-pakistan\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India and Pakistan were former British colonies and got independence in 1947.
