Pakistan has categorically rejected the statement by senior BJP leader and Chief Minister of Assam propagating for Hindutva's expansionist idea of so-called "Akhand Bharat.

In a statement on Wednesday, Foreign Office Spokesperson Asim Iftikhar Ahmad said gratuitous assertion is nothing but a manifestation of the 'Hindutva' majoritarian agenda of the ruling BJP and its revisionist and expansionist mind-set that seeks to subjugate the identity and culture of its neighbouring countries as well as its own religious minorities.

He said it is also a reflection of the BJP's jaundiced view of history and delusional thinking.

The Spokesperson said it is evident that BJP political figures engage in falsehoods and fantasies while pointing fingers at neighbours, including Pakistan. In doing so, they want to divert the attention of the international community from India's mistreatment and persecution of minorities as well as widespread violations of human rights and international humanitarian law committed by the Indian occupation forces in the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

He said Indian politicians would be well advised to introspect, exhibit maturity, and not indulge in meaningless political rhetoric against other countries merely to further their divisive and parochial political agenda.
