NEW DELHI: On Thursday, The Government of India (GoI) India has yet again slammed Pakistan for claming that it is not aware of terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed's presence on its soil and denying any role in Thursday's worst suicide attack on a CRPF convoy in Jammu and Kashmir's Pulwama. 

The strong condemnation from India came after Pakistan Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua briefed ambassador of Permanent Five (P5) members of United Nations Security Council (UNSC) rejecting Pakistan's involvement in the Pulwama attack and claiming that Islamabad wants a constructive approach towards India.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) issued a statement saying, ''JeM has claimed responsibility for the attack. The organisation and its leadership are located in Pakistan. LeT and other terror groups have welcomed the news of the attack. These groups are also based in Pakistan. Pakistan cannot claim that it is unaware of their presence and their activities." The MEA statement further, "they have not taken any action against these groups despite international demands, especially against groups and individuals proscribed by the UN and other countries. The links to Pakistan are clear and evident for all to see." 

"Its own Ministers have shared the same podium with UN proscribed terrorists,"Pakistani Ministers have often been clicked sharing dais with terrorists and 26/11 mastermind Hafiz Saeed. In September 2018, Pakistan's Religious Affairs and Inter-faith Minister Noor-ul-Haq Qadri shared a platform with Hafiz Saeed and both made anti-India statements. Last year, a video surfaced in which Pakistan's Minister of State for Interior Shehryar Khan Afridi had openly expressed the support of current Imran Khan Administration to Hafiz Saeed and his organization.
