'Look inward': India 'categorically rejects' Pakistan's Karachi violence claims as 'baseless'

India on Sunday vehemently dismissed Pakistan's allegations linking it to Saturda's violence in Karachi, calling the claims "baseless" and urging Islamabad to focus instead on dismantling terrorist infrastructure operating within its own borders.

Responding to media queries, Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said New Delhi "categorically rejects" the allegations, describing them as an attempt to deflect attention from Pakistan's internal challenges.

"We have seen Pakistani reports making baseless allegations against India regarding the recent incident in Karachi. We categorically reject them," he said.

"Instead of pointing fingers at others, Pakistan would do better to look inwards, take credible action against the terror infrastructure on its territory and rid itself of its proclivity to rely on terrorism as an instrument of state policy," Jaiswal said in an official statement.
