NEW DELHI: Amid the escalated tension between India and Pakistan over the Pahalgam terror attack , Bharatiya Janata Party leader Dilip Ghosh slammed Pakistani politician Bilawal Bhutto Zardari 's 'either water or blood will flow' remarks and said that it is Pakistan's old habit to make such futile statements.
Ghosh said, "Blood is already flowing in Pakistan. Al-Qaeda is beating them from one side and Afghanistan from the other... We have already shown them what we can do. He is still a child like he was earlier. It is Pakistan's old habit to make such futile statements."
This response came after PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari's contentious statement regarding India's suspension of the Indus water treaty , which designates the Western Rivers to Pakistan and the Eastern Rivers to India.
Addressing Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's comments, Ghosh highlighted Pakistan's history of breaking treaties and agreements with India since 1947, stating that the time for discussions had passed.
"They want to sit and talk, but the world does not want to sit with them. Why would one sit with them and waste time? Who violated the Shimla Agreement? Which agreement has Pakistan not violated since 1947?... It is too late now. It is time for action... They should be ready to get beaten up," the BJP leader said.
India implemented diplomatic actions on Wednesday, including expelling Pakistani military attaches, halting the Indus Waters Treaty of 1960, and closing the Attari land-transit post, citing cross-border connections to the Pahalgam attack.
The Pahalgam attack has caused nationwide grief, with citizens mourning the victims of the terrorist assault. The incident has prompted diplomatic responses and increased security measures between the neighbouring nations.
On April 22, gunmen stormed a group of tourists at the Baisaran meadow, claiming the lives of 26 people and injuring several more in what has become one of the deadliest assaults in the region since the 2019 Pulwama strike. The Resistance Front, a proxy of the banned Lashkar-e-Taiba, swiftly claimed responsibility, before distancing itself from the attack.
