In a powerful diplomatic rebuttal, India exposed Pakistan’s false claims at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on Friday. Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, during his 25-minute speech, attempted to portray Pakistan as a victim of terrorism and accused India of unwarranted aggression. However, India’s young diplomat Petal Gahlot delivered a sharp response, dismantling Pakistan’s narrative in under four minutes. Gahlot condemned Pakistan for glorifying terrorism and using falsehoods to manipulate the international community. She pointed out the irony of Pakistani military and political leaders openly praising notorious terrorists, exposing the nation’s double standards on terrorism. She further criticized Pakistan’s bizarre claims of victory in recent conflicts, including the alleged downing of seven Indian fighter jets, calling them baseless and laughable. Gahlot reminded the global community of Pakistan’s repeated failures and the destruction of its military installations during India’s counterterror operations. India’s response not only debunked Pakistan’s propaganda but also highlighted its ongoing support for terrorism. Gahlot’s precise and confident address was widely appreciated, once again positioning India as a responsible global actor, committed to truth and peace.
