India slams OIC for 'unwarranted' references to it
India on Monday slammed the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation ( OIC ) for making "unwarranted" and "factually incorrect" references to it while coming under influence of Pakistan , which turned terrorism into "statecraft". India's strong reactions came after a two-day foreign ministerial conclave of the OIC in Turkiye criticised New Delhi on a range of issues including what it said is "social marginalisation" of Indian Muslims. The OIC also called for strict adherence to bilateral pacts between India and Pakistan, including the Indus Waters Treaty and stressed the need for a broad-based dialogue for peaceful settlement of all outstanding disputes. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Chi phí cấy ghép răng là bao nhiêu vào năm 2025 (kiểm tra giá) Cấy ghép răng | Quảng cáo tìm kiếm Tìm hiểu thêm Undo "India categorically rejects the unwarranted and factually incorrect references to India at the OIC council of foreign ministers' meeting," the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said in a statement. "These statements, driven by Pakistan, which has turned terrorism into statecraft, reflect the continued misuse of the OIC platform for narrow political ends," it said. Live Events The MEA said the OIC's repeated "failure" to acknowledge the real and documented threat of terrorism emanating from Pakistan, most recently evidenced in the heinous Pahalgam attack , reflects a "wilful disregard" for facts. It said "the OIC has no locus standi to comment on India's internal affairs, including Jammu and Kashmir , which is an integral and sovereign part of India -- a fact enshrined in the Indian Constitution and irreversibly settled." "The OIC should reflect deeply on the perils of allowing Pakistan's propaganda to hijack and politicise its agenda. Any other course can only undermine the OIC's credibility and relevance," the MEA said. It said India also "outrightly rejects" Pakistan's baseless allegation of "unprovoked and unjustified military aggression". "India's Operation Sindoor in response to the Pahalgam terror attack was a precise and legitimate act of self-defence against terrorist camps operating from Pakistani territory," the MEA said. "It is absurd for Pakistan to speak of targeting only Indian military installations when its retaliatory attempts not only failed but recklessly endangered civilian lives and property and ended up causing several deaths and injuries among the civilian population. "It is also ironic that Pakistan, a country with an abysmal human rights record and a history of sheltering, breeding and empowering terrorists, should lecture others on counter-terrorism and human rights," it said. The MEA said the comments made by Pakistan at the OIC meeting are nothing more than a "desperate attempt" to deflect international attention from its own appalling record of "state-sponsored terrorism, minority persecution and sectarian violence, apart from failure of governance".

India slams OIC for its unwarranted and factually incorrect references
New Delhi, June 23 (UNI) India on Monday slammed the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) for its 'unwarranted and factually incorrect' references at the OIC Council of Foreign Ministers' Meeting and said these statements, driven by Pakistan which has turned terrorism into statecraft, reflect the continued misuse of the OIC platform for narrow political ends. The External Affairs Ministry, while outright rejecting the 57-member OIC's references to India's internal matters, said the OIC's repeated failure to acknowledge the real and documented threat of terrorism emanating from Pakistan, most recently evidenced in the heinous Pahalgam attack, reflects a wilful disregard for facts and the global consensus on the fight against terrorism. 'The OIC has no locus standi to comment on India's internal affairs, including Jammu and Kashmir, which is an integral and sovereign part of India — a fact enshrined in the Indian Constitution and irreversibly settled,' the Ministry said in a statement. It said the OIC should reflect deeply on the perils of allowing Pakistan's propaganda to hijack and politicise its agenda. Any other course can only undermine the OIC's credibility and relevance. It said the comments made by Pakistan at the OIC meeting "are nothing more than a desperate attempt to deflect international attention from its own appalling record of state-sponsored terrorism, minority persecution and sectarian violence, apart from failure of governance".

The OIC had in its Istanbul Declaration adopted during the two-day 51st session of the OIC Council of Foreign Ministers, renewed solidarity with the people of Jammu and Kashmir.

Turning Terrorism Into Statecraft...: India Rebuffs OIC, Calls Out Pakistan For Baseless Allegation
The Ministry of External Affairs has rejected the "unwarranted and factually incorrect" references to India at the OIC Council of Foreign Ministers' Meeting. Slamming Islamabad, the MEA issued a statement and stated that the OIC's 'repeated failure' to acknowledge the threat of terrorism emanating from Pakistan, most recently evidenced by the terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam, 'reflects a wilful disregard for facts and the global consensus on the fight against terrorism.' It also emphasised, "Statements, driven by Pakistan, which has turned terrorism into statecraft, reflect the continued misuse of the OIC platform for narrow political ends." OIC's J-K Remarks 'The OIC has no locus standi to comment on India's internal affairs, including Jammu & Kashmir, which is an integral and sovereign part of India — a fact enshrined in the Indian Constitution and irreversibly settled,' MEA added. 'The OIC should reflect deeply on the perils of allowing Pakistan's propaganda to hijack and politicize its agenda. Any other course can only undermine the OIC's credibility and relevance. The comments made by Pakistan at the OIC meeting are nothing more than a desperate attempt to deflect international attention from its own appalling record of state-sponsored terrorism, minority persecution and sectarian violence, apart from failure of governance,' the Ministry elaborated. MEA On Pakistan MEA's statement also rejected Pakistan's baseless allegation of 'unprovoked and unjustified military aggression.' India's Operation Sindoor, in response to the Pahalgam terror attack, was a 'precise and legitimate act of self-defence against terrorist camps operating from Pakistani territory.' "It is absurd for Pakistan to speak of targeting only Indian military installations when its retaliatory attempts not only failed but recklessly endangered civilian lives and property and ended up causing several deaths and injuries among the civilian population," the statement added. Pakistan's 'Irony' MEA also slammed Islamabad, stating, "It is also ironic that Pakistan, a country with an abysmal human rights record and a history of sheltering, breeding and empowering terrorists, should lecture others on counter-terrorism and human rights." Operation Sindoor The tensions between India and Pakistan were escalating for a while after the Pahalgam terror attack of April 22. Following the attack, while New Delhi took several punitive measures against Islamabad, the Indian Armed Forces launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting terrorist infrastructure sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK). After this, Pakistan also launched a series of drone and missile attacks on Indian territory; however, a ceasefire was declared on May 10 after Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) contacted his Indian counterpart.
