India today, on May 21, 2025, firmly rejected Pakistan’s statement accusing a “Indian hand” in the suicide bombing of an army school bus in Khuzdar, Balochistan. According to the Ministry of External Affairs, the allegation is “a failed attempt to mislead the world” and part of Pakistan’s old tactic of diverting attention from the terrorism thriving within its own borders.
According to media reports, while the tragic death of four children evoked cross-border sympathy, the tone of discussions on Twitter and Reddit was clear: instead of facing criticism, India was receiving empathy, while the Pakistani government faced accusations of running a “directionless propaganda” campaign.
Blaming its neighbor with baseless accusations has long been Islamabad’s strategy. However, this time, Pakistan’s credibility is under deeper scrutiny on global platforms—be it under the lens of the FATF or in Western media reports. India not only refuted the allegations but also expressed condolences for the innocent students of Balochistan, reinforcing its consistent stance of standing against terrorism on humanitarian grounds.
From a diplomatic perspective, this moment is decisive: if Pakistan continues to echo baseless claims instead of controlling terrorist networks, its international isolation will only intensify. India, on the other hand, must keep informing global partners with fact-based responses and bolster intelligence cooperation in the fight against terrorism.
In short, today’s precise rebuttal makes it clear—India’s policy stands on the twin pillars of “eliminating terror, countering false accusations,” and hollow claims will not shake its resolve.
