Geneva: India on Tuesday slammed Pakistan for providing pensions to dreaded and listed terrorists and hosting them on its territory, saying it’s high time that Islamabad is held accountable for aiding and abetting terrorism.
Exercising the Right of Reply to the statements made by Pakistan at the 47th session of the Human Rights Council (HRC) here, the Indian representative said that the scourge of terrorism is the gravest violation of human rights and must be dealt with in strongest terms in all its forms and manifestations.
Noting that Pakistan has once again misused this platform for making informed and irresponsible allegations against India, the Indian diplomat said that Islamabad has been doing this only to distract the Council’s attention from the deplorable human rights situation in the country.
