On Friday, the Senate in Pakistan unanimously adopted a decision that rejected India’s accusations connecting Pakistan with the Pahagam attack in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) in which they called them baseless and politically motivated.

The dissolution condemned all forms of terrorism, repeated Pakistan’s obligation to peace and condemned India’s unilateral suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty as a violation that could be considered a war of war.

The resolution comes in the midst of increased tension after a deadly attack on tourists in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), which India has blamed Pakistan – a prosecutor Islamabad is strongly denying.

The resolution confirmed support for Kashmiri people’s right to self-determination and accused India of running a propaganda campaign and participating in extracurricular killings abroad.

In a speech during the Senate Session, Dar said that Pakistan had observed the situation after the Pahagam event to see how it would unfold. He noted that India did not named Pakistan directly and presented no evidence connecting Islamabad to the attack.

Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar Insured the House of the National Security Committee’s decisions, including the deportation of Indian diplomats, cancellation of SAARC -VISA and closure of the Wagah border.

He said that Pakistan’s armed forces are fully prepared to respond to any aggression and emphasized that water is a national lifeline for 240 million Pakistanis.

Opposition leader Shibli Faraz called for international responsibility for India’s actions, while ANP leader Aimal Wali called for dialogue and peace and questioned selective route endings.

He blamed India’s discrepancy for preventing peace and development in the region and said that SAARC is striving for regional growth, but the hardness of a country continues to hold it back.

The United Nations on Thursday called on India and Pakistan to exercise “maximum restraint” after an attack in Pahaldam leaving 26 people died.

UN spokesman Stéphane Dujarric said Secretary -General António Guterres had not had direct contact with any of the government for the last 24 hours, but monitored the situation “very close and with a great deal of concern.”

“We were very clear in our condemnation of the attack that took place in Pahagam, which killed a large number of civilians,” Dujarric said during a press release in New York.

He urged both nuclear armed nations to avoid further escalation and to solve differences peacefully.
