Pahalgam Terror Attack: The recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, a tourist destination in Jammu and Kashmir, has once again raised serious questions on Pakistan's role. Innocent civilians were targeted in this attack, which has led to a wave of anger across the country. However, as always, Pakistan has denied its involvement this time too. But denying the truth does not change it.The latest statement of Pakistan's Defense Minister Khawaja Asif has brought a new twist in this whole matter. In an interview to a Pakistani TV channel, he said that "Pakistan has nothing to do with the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. Pakistan condemns all forms of terrorism." However, along with this, he also tried to derail the matter by accusing India.Instead, blamed IndiaKhwaja Asif claimed in the statement that the people of India itself are behind this attack. He made misleading statements about the situation in India's northeastern states and Kashmir and said that "areas like Nagaland, Manipur and Kashmir in India are dissatisfied with the government, so people are rising against the government."His statements are not only an attempt to spread lies and confusion, but also show that Pakistan has still not backed down from its pro-terror policies.Double standards on terrorismWhile on the one hand Khawaja Asif pretends to 'condemn' terrorism, on the other hand he also tries to give it an ideological and political garb. This makes both Pakistan's policy and intention clear. If a country is not honest in the fight against terrorism, it can itself become its victim - and the situation in Pakistan is a testimony to this.The truth being exposed on the global stageIndia has always exposed Pakistan's terrorist activities on international stages. Organizations like the United Nations and FATF have been warning Pakistan from time to time, but the government there follows the old strategy of "denial and blame" every time.The Pahalgam attack has once again shown that until terrorism is completely eradicated from Pakistani soil, lasting peace in the region will remain a dream.
