Pakistan caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar has called for an alliance against neighbouring India following Canada's allegations that New Delhi was involved in the murder of one of its citizens. Kakar said at a news conference in New York that his country has been a victim of"state-sponsored terrorism", and it shared evidence at different global forums about the role of the Indian state.
"It might be the first of its kind event, probably after the First World War, that an Asian country staged a physical murder on European soil, and its impacts were being felt across the Western countries who now realise how India was persecuting its minorities like Christians, Sikhs and Muslims," state-run Associated Press of Pakistan quoted Kakar as saying.
He said the murder of a Sikh leader in Canada jolted the West, and India’s involvement raised serious questions.Relations between Canada and India hit rock bottom after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau asserted that India had a hand in the killing of Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada – a claim New Delhi denies.
