Representing India in the Right of Reply, First Secretary Petal Gahlot from India’s Permanent Mission at the UN accused Pakistan of harboring terrorist groups and spreading misinformation while trying to portray its setback as a triumph.
She reminded the United Nations General Assembly that during Operation Sindoor, Pakistan’s military had appealed to India to halt the conflict after its airbases were left in ruins. Gahlot remarked that if shattered runways and charred hangars are considered a sign of victory, as claimed by the Pakistani Prime Minister, then Pakistan is free to celebrate such an outcome.
