She also alleged that India lacked the honest intent of statesmanship given the fact that PM Narendra Modi came to visit Pakistan and extended a hand of friendship but then conducted airstrikes on Balakot to propagate his agenda during elections.

To these allegations, Sri Ravi Shankar replied, “Why India has no problems with all other neighbors - we have good relations with Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. All the countries are coming together and India is willing to be very much part of Pakistan’s growth.” Ravi Shankar even pointed out that Pakistan provides a home to the most wanted terrorists of the world. A country must first come with clean hands if it expects support from other countries.Remarks Regarding Citizenship Amendment Act of India and SecularismHina Rabbani Khar pointed out to Ravi Shankar that the Indian government has tainted its secular constitutional ideals by implementing the Citizenship Amendment Act and preventing Muslims from their rightful place in secular India. However, Ravi Shankar replied to this by showing how the Indian Muslim community had great progress in the past few years. Besides various programmes aimed at the development of minorities, the government has drastically changed the independence of Muslim women by implementing the ban on Triple Talaq.For more updates keep visiting our website www.topstoriesworld.com where we provide unbiased, true and top stories of the world.
