For nearly Seventy-Five years, The Pakistani Government has accused India of ‘Genocide,’ ‘Expansionism,’ and ‘Support for Terrorism.’ Some people believe these claims, but It is all Fake News. There is loads of Evidence against Pakistani Propaganda.
Pakistani Propaganda against India is divided into three groups. The First is Genocide Against the Muslim community in Kashmir. Between 1991 and 2023, the Muslim population increased from five million to over nine million. Anti-India NGOs like Rights Watch have no proof of genocide. The result is clear; there is no genocide in Kashmir. Only three per cent of the Kashmiri population openly supported joining Pakistan, although some want to join Pakistan secretly. More want Indian forces to leave, but as long as Pakistan continues its actions, Indian troops must stay. As always, most people don’t care and want peace.
There is also the ridiculous claim that India supports terror. There has been substantial evidence that the Pakistani government has supported Terrorists in Kashmir and Punjab since the 1980s, training and funding them. The same Pakistan accuses India of supporting the TTP and Baloch Nationalists. The Indian government has shown no interest in the foreign affairs of Pakistan. Regarding the TTP, India has been a victim of such attacks. The 2001 Parliament Attacks were staged by Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba, Pakistan Based organisations, with the Primary objective of claiming Kashmir for Pakistan. When we connect the dots, we discover what has been known for a long time: Both these groups were supported by Pakistan.
It goes a lot deeper than that! Leaked US Cables tell us that Congress played a role in the attacks to make the BJP look weak.
This brings us to the third group- Expansionism-; there have been four wars between India and Pakistan, all started by Pakistan. The US Office of Historians states, “Hostilities intensified that August when the Pakistani Army attempted to take Kashmir by force.” Pakistan has violated the Line of Control. And it’s not just wars: When we look back to the Unfortunate 2019 Pulwama attack, Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba, the same Pakistan-funded Militant Groups which attacked the Capital in 2001, hosted this attack. Even the 2008 attacks in Mumbai were staged by the Pakistan-based Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, the co-founder of the Lashkar-e-Taiba.
Pakistani claims are focused on destroying India. The proof is in Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind, which aims to destroy India. The Pakistani government has not taken many actions again the group. Similarly, Pakistan has supported Khalistan, a terror group seeking an Independent Punjab. Pakistan has funded the movement. The goal- annihilate India, Take Kashmir, and let the rest rot. It has become a common joke online where a Pakistani child says, “I will destroy India.” It is not a joke. Pakistan is already willing to destroy India using terror attacks. It is best if Pakistan strives for peace- it is what the future needs.
