India's Permanent Representative to the UN Parvathaneni Harish said, “I am constrained to respond to the baseless allegations of the representative of Pakistan on a number of issues. Referring to a recent incident, he alleged that the Pakistani army had deliberately targeted Indian border villages earlier this month.Harish also slammed Pakistani officials for attending the funeral of some of the terrorists killed by India under ‘Operation Sindoor’. “We just recently saw senior government, police and military officials pay respects at the funeral of noted terrorists targeted by Operation Sindoor. A nation that makes no distinction between terrorists and civilians has no credentials to speak about protecting civilians,” he said.
