MEA rejects Pakistan claim of India’s hand in Karachi attack

NEW DELHI: India has slammed Pakistan for alleging Indian involvement in an attack on a military base in Karachi Saturday, saying Pakistan needs to look inwards and dismantle terror infrastructure on its territory. Four paramilitary personnel were killed in a terrorist attack on a Sindh Rangers compound in Karachi Saturday night. It was the city’s first major terrorist strike since Oct 2024. Pakistani security forces killed six terrorists and captured one alive. In Karachi on Saturday, PM Shehbaz Sharif accused India of using “proxies” to undermine peace and stability in Pakistan. Ministry of external affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal rejected the allegations as “baseless”. He said, “Instead of pointing fingers at others, Pakistan would do better to look inwards, take credible action against terror infrastructure…and rid itself of its proclivity to rely on terrorism as an instrument of state policy.
