India Raises Concerns Over Pakistan’s Democratic Backsliding, Flags Imran Khan’s Detention at UNSC

At the UN Security Council’s Open Debate on “Leadership for Peace”, India strongly criticised Pakistan’s internal political actions.

India’s Permanent Representative, Harish Parvathaneni, remarked that Pakistan has a “unique way of respecting the will of its people” by jailing former Prime Minister Imran Khan, banning his party, and granting lifetime immunity to its military chief.

India also termed Pakistan a “global epicentre of terror”, citing decades of cross-border terrorism and justifying the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty.
