India's Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Harish Parvathaneni, delivered a strong rebuke to Pakistan at the UN Security Council meeting on Monday.

The Indian representative condemned Pakistan's move to designate some groups as 'Fitna al-Hindustan', calling it 'officially sponsored misinformation and disinformation dressed in religious terminology'.

Parvathaneni accused Pakistan's military of orchestrating a 'de facto coup' and using the designation as a means to keep citizens in a state of hostility with India.

India also criticized Pakistan for its military airstrikes against Afghanistan, which resulted in multiple civilian casualties.

Parvathaneni stated that dressing up a massacre as a military operation does not absolve the perpetrator and that killing civilians is not counter-terrorism.
