ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has strongly criticized Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, calling him “the biggest certified terrorist.”
Responding to Modi’s recent address to the Indian nation, Asif remarked that Modi sounded like a “defeated gambler,” revealing a deep sense of nervousness and insecurity.
The minister accused India of creating and sponsoring terror groups like the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA), and said any Indian claims regarding terrorism must be preceded by an international investigation into the Pahalgam incident.
Asif stressed that if India chooses to speak on Kashmir, both Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) and Indian-Occupied Kashmir (IOK) must be included in the dialogue, along with the implementation of UN Security Council resolutions.
