Union Minister and former Indian Army chief General (retd) VK Singh that Pakistan Minister Fawad Chaudhry’s admission of his government’s hand in the dastardly Pulwama terror attack vindicates India’s stand on carrying out the Balakot airstrike as well as the subsequent alienation of Pakistan on the global stage.
“I would like to thank him for admitting the truth concerning Pulwama terror attack. We had said right in the beginning that all the leads point towards Pakistan. The government of India subsequently took action against the terrorists that were harboured in Pakistan,” VK Singh told news agency ANI.
He called for the Financial Action Task Force to blacklist Pakistan and cut foreign aides to the country for its terrorist activities.
“I am sure our government will utilise this admission by Pakistan to tell the world that Pakistan needs to be blacklisted by FATF and that nobody should give aid to Pakistan,” he said.
Singh also attacked the Opposition for questioning the central government after the Pulwama terror attack and called them ‘anti-India’.
“As far as the opposition is concerned, they have the right to question the government but when they start showing love towards a country which is sponsoring terrorism in your country, how do you classify such persons? I would classify them as being anti-India. The political parties need to rethink as to what they are doing. These are the same people who try to create a narrative of ‘saffron terrorism’. Unfortunately, we have not done anything against him. We should use all the laws that are available to curb such activities,” Singh said.
