Kolkata, West Bengal | Union Minister Sukanta Majumdar has strongly criticized Pakistan's reported proposal for a 'neutral investigation' into the Pahalgam terror attack, calling it disingenuous. His comments came in response to a statement made by Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who suggested that Pakistan was ready for a neutral probe into the attack.
Majumdar questioned the credibility of Pakistan’s offer, saying, "What investigation will these people do? Can a thief ever investigate his own theft?" He further emphasized that the statement by Sharif was driven by fear. "The Prime Minister of Pakistan is saying this out of fear. This fear is good, he should have this fear," Majumdar added, underlining the need for Pakistan to face consequences for its actions.
The Union Minister also reiterated India’s stance on dealing with Pakistan, stating, "When Pakistan is not prepared, that's when we will hit them, and we will hit them hard." His remarks reflect the heightened tensions following the Pahalgam attack, with Majumdar advocating for a firm and decisive response to terrorism originating from across the border.
