India Slams OIC's 'Malicious' Agenda, Exposes Pakistan's Diversion Tactics
India rejects "malicious" OIC resolutions, calling them a Pakistani ploy to hide internal chaos and human rights abuses in PoJK.
India has launched a scathing attack on the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), strongly rejecting anti-India references made during the Council of Foreign Ministers' meeting in Baghdad. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) described the resolutions as "malicious, biased, and false," asserting that Pakistan has once again manipulated the organization to push its own bigoted agenda.
No Locus Standi on Internal Matters
In a firm statement, the MEA categorically rejected the narratives presented at the meeting held on October 17-18, 2026. India reaffirmed its unwavering stance that the Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh are integral and inalienable parts of the country.
The Ministry emphasized that the OIC has no locus standi—or legal standing—to interfere in matters that are strictly internal to India. According to the MEA, no amount of politically motivated propaganda can change the reality of India's sovereignty over these regions.
Growth in J&K vs. Chaos in PoJK
Highlighting the transformation within its borders, the MEA pointed out that since the abrogation of Article 370, Jammu and Kashmir has witnessed substantial economic growth. This progress has manifested through enhanced connectivity, a boom in tourism, and critical infrastructure development that directly benefits the local population.
India contrasted this stability with the harrowing situation in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK). The MEA accused Pakistan of unleashing brutality, repression, and violence against civilian protesters, resulting in the deaths of numerous individuals, including women and children. The statement noted that despite strict media blackouts, these grave human rights violations remain visible to the world.
Exposing the 'Desperate Attempt' by Pakistan
The Indian government further dismissed accusations of Islamophobia and other hostile references in the OIC resolutions as fabrications. The MEA characterized these claims as a "desperate attempt" by Pakistan to shift the global spotlight away from its own internal failures, including:
- An appalling record of sectarian violence and persecution of minorities.
- Widespread governance failures.
- Chronic political instability.
"The only issues related to Jammu and Kashmir that remain to be addressed are Pakistan vacating from areas under its illegal and forcible occupation and ceasing its continued support to cross-border terrorism," the MEA stated.
Questions Over OIC's Credibility
India expressed deep disappointment that the OIC continues to endorse "patently malicious propaganda" peddled by Pakistan. The MEA suggested that this repeated pattern raises serious questions regarding the credibility and integrity of the organization, expressing hope that the member states will move toward reforming the OIC.
