New Delhi: In yet another bizarre twist, Indian Home Minister Amit Shah has claimed that the militants killed in Srinagar were not only Pakistani nationals but were found carrying the ultimate “proof” of their origin \u2014 Pakistani chocolates.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Shah made the remarks while addressing a session of parliament, further asserting that the slain militants also possessed Pakistani voter ID cards, a claim that has triggered widespread ridicule both within media circles and among international observers. Shah alleged that the three militants killed in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) were responsible for the April attack on tourists in Pahalgam.<\/p>\n
However, this assertion was quickly debunked, as Pakistan does not issue separate voter ID cards. Voting in Pakistan is conducted through the Computerized National Identity Card (CNIC), rendering the claim factually inaccurate.<\/p>\n
The satirical responses were swift and pointed. \u201cApparently, these militants weren\u2019t just carrying chocolates that have somehow remained uneaten and unexpired for more than three months \u2014 perhaps they were also roaming around with Pakistani biryani,\u201d quipped one commentator.<\/p>\n
This is far from the first time India has made such outlandish claims. New Delhi has previously accused a pigeon of being an ISI spy and considered a plastic toy aircraft a serious breach of Indian airspace. Now, chocolate appears to have been added to India’s list of “strategic threats.”<\/p>\n
\u201cIf India considers a piece of confectionery as definitive evidence of cross-border militancy, one wonders what\u2019s next; Nirala sweets or Ali Bhai\u2019s famous chaat?\u201d joked another observer. \u201cAnd if a body found in Pakistan were discovered with Pan Parag, Dabur Amla oil, or Nirma washing powder, would that be accepted globally as irrefutable proof of Indian state-sponsored terrorism?\u201d<\/p>\n
The international community has repeatedly dismissed such Indian allegations as baseless and laughable. Shah\u2019s latest statement, analysts note, only further undermines India\u2019s credibility on the global stage.<\/p>\n
In the absence of hard evidence, India appears to resort to theatrical claims whether it be pigeons, toys, or chocolates in a desperate bid to shape its preferred narrative.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
