India has been a victim of terror acts perpetrated by Pakistan through groups such as Jaish-e-Mohammed and it is a ‘supreme irony’ when the ‘global epicentre of terrorism’ pats itself on the back claiming to fight against the scourge, Delhi’s envoy told a UN Security Council meeting chaired by China.

India’s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Parvathaneni Harish delivered a strongly-worded retort after Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Mohammed Ishaq Dar made remarks about Jammu and Kashmir during an open debate on Tuesday on ‘Practicing multilateralism, reforming and improving global governance’ held under China’s presidency of the Council.
