Additionally, the Prime Minister offered India a neutral and transparent investigation into the recent Pahalgam incident, which Pakistan has described as a “false flag” operation. He reiterated Pakistan’s condemnation of terrorism in all forms and stressed that credible, impartial investigations are necessary to avoid baseless blame games and unverified allegations.
