India strongly criticized Pakistan at the United Nations, accusing it of hypocrisy regarding human rights and its consistent support for terrorism. Indian authorities dismissed Pakistan’s remarks in both the UN Human Rights Council and the UN General Assembly, describing them as deceptive and filled with propaganda. During the 34th meeting of the 60th session of the UNHRC in Geneva, Indian diplomat Mohammad Hussain stated, “India finds it deeply ironic that a country like Pakistan would lecture others on human rights. Pakistan should focus on the oppression of minorities within its borders instead of spreading misinformation.” These remarks were prompted by reports that an airstrike by Islamabad in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province led to the deaths of at least 23 civilians. India underscored its ongoing concerns over Islamabad’s treatment of minorities and its failure to address internal human rights issues, a perspective also held by other international observers.
