Geneva parliamentary meet: India has strongly urged Pakistan to cease its operations of “terror factories,” which continually launch numerous cross-border attacks. India criticized its neighboring nation for raising the issue of Jammu and Kashmir on an international platform dedicated to discussing Parliamentary diplomacy.
Representing India at the 148th Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) Assembly in Geneva, Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman Harivansh Narayan Singh dismissed Pakistan’s criticisms with a firm stance. He stated, “I reject the preposterous comments made by Pakistan against my country. India, as the largest democracy globally, stands as a model for emulation by many. It is laughable to receive lectures from a country with such an abysmal record in democracy.” Singh’s remarks came during India’s right-to-reply session.

During the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) session, Pakistan raised the issue of Jammu and Kashmir. In reaction, the Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman expressed that Pakistan’s attempt to undermine the significance of a platform like the IPU with baseless allegations is regrettable. Regarding Jammu and Kashmir, Harivansh emphasized that it will perpetually remain an integral and inalienable part of India, asserting that no amount of propaganda can alter this reality.
Cease terror factors
Harivansh emphasized that it would be prudent for Pakistan to cease its operations of “terror factories,” which persistently conduct numerous cross-border terrorist attacks in Jammu and Kashmir, all while paradoxically professing to advocate for human rights. He also underscored to the council that Pakistan has a long-standing history of harboring, aiding, and actively supporting terrorists.
