Shashi Tharoor In US Gives Evidence Of Pakistans Involvement In Pahalgam Terror Attack

Congress MP and the lead of India’s All-Party Delegation to the United States, Shashi Tharoor, on Thursday indexed 3 proof about Pakistan’s involvement within the Pahalgam terror assault of April 22 during which 26 folks have been killed. 

As he addressed the media’s queries in the United States, he was once wondered if any nation had requested the delegation for proof of Islamabad’s involvement within the Pahalgam assault. 

“I’m very happy you raised this. I did not plant it, I promise you. Very merely, nobody had any doubt, and we weren’t requested for proof. But the media have requested in two or 3 puts. Let me say very obviously that India don’t have finished this with out convincing proof. But there have been 3 specific causes I wish to draw your consideration to all of you,” the Congress MP spoke back. 

He persisted to record 3 items of proof about Pakistan’s involvement within the Pahalgam terrorist assault: 

1- Over Three Decades Of Pattern 

The first level that Tharoor raised was once that there was a 37-year trend of repeated terror assaults from Pakistan, accompanied by means of repeated denials.

“I imply, Americans have not forgotten that Pakistan didn’t know, allegedly, the place Osama bin Laden was once till he was once present in a Pakistani protected area proper subsequent to a military camp in a cantonment town. That’s Pakistan. Mumbai attacks- they denied having anything else to do with it… So we all know what Pakistan’s all about. They will dispatch terrorists, they’re going to deny they did so till they are in truth stuck with crimson arms,” he added.  

2- TRF’s Claim

The subsequent level the Congress chief highlighted was once that The Resistance Front (TRF), a proxy entrance of the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) had claimed the accountability for the Pahalgam terror assault and later withdrew it. 

“Second point, the moment this happened, within 45 minutes or so of this happening, the terrorist attack, a group called The Resistance Front, claimed credit. Who is The Resistance Front? They’re a well-known proxy front of the Lashkar-e-Taiba, a banned organization listed by the United Nations (UN) listed by the US State Department…” he elaborated. 

“These people then claimed credit within a time span. There were no media present when these killings took place. Most of the world hadn’t even learned about this when they claimed credit. So that was itself a smoking gun. They repeated that claim 24 hours later. And having repeated that claim 24 hours later, then their handlers must have woken up to the gravity of this and told them to take it off their site. So they did. But the fact is, the credit claim was on record, and the world has seen it,” he introduced his 2d level. 

3- Funerals After India’s Strikes

Tharoor introduced the following level and stated, “Third, when the first strikes happened on the terrorist camps, funerals were conducted, including for members of some of the key organizations, the Jaish-e-Mohammed in particular, and the Lashkar-e-Taiba.”

“The funerals were conducted, and photographs have emerged on social media showing Pakistani generals and police officers in uniform attending these funerals being conducted by relatives of these terrorists,” he persisted.
