India rejects OIC resolutions; says Pakistan its manipulator

On Thursday India responded to the statements and resolutions adopted in the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) meeting in Pakistan.

Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said the statements and resolutions adopted at the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation meeting “demonstrate both the irrelevance of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation as a body and role of Pakistan as its manipulator.”

Arindam Bagchi further said that the references that have been made to India are based on falsehoods and misrepresentation.

“References have been made to India that are based on falsehoods and misrepresentation. The absurdity of this body commenting on the treatment of minorities, that too at the instance of a serial violator of human rights like Pakistan, is so evident,” Bagchi said in a statement.

The spokesperson added that the governments who associate themselves with such exercise should realise how it impacts their reputation.

“Nations and Governments that associate themselves with such exercises should realise the impact it has on their reputation,” said Bagchi.
