India has categorically rejected the statement issued by Pakistan in support of a banned terrorist organization and its members. In response to media queries regarding statement made by Pakistan on judicial matters concerning a banned terrorist organisation, External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal stressed that Pakistan has no locus standi to comment on matters internal to India or its judicial processes. He said it is no surprise that a country, which has long been sponsoring terrorism, has come up with such a statement condoning violence and the killing of innocent people. The spokesperson said that Pakistan should introspect on the grave and systematic human rights violations it continues to perpetrate instead of peddling lies and frivolous narratives.
