In a calculated diplomatic move, India has turned Pakistan’s own words against it. Referring to Khwaja Asif’s “dirty work for the West” remark, New Delhi questioned how Islamabad can position itself as a neutral mediator in global conflicts. The response was not limited to rhetoric. India also highlighted statements by Pakistani leaders themselves, suggesting internal acknowledgment of the country’s controversial role in past conflicts. More significantly, India brought back the 1971 narrative, pointing to Operation Searchlight and the atrocities committed during the Bangladesh Liberation War. This linkage between past and present is strategic. It shifts the debate from claims to credibility. As Pakistan attempts to project itself in the West Asia crisis, India is reinforcing its own image as a stable and consistent global actor. The message is clear: in international diplomacy, history matters, and trust is built over decades, not declared overnight.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah, speaking in the Lok Sabha, attacked Naxalism and its ideological roots, linking it to global communist movements in Russia and China. He said organizations like CPI, CPI(M), and CPI (ML) were formed with the objective of opposing parliamentary democracy and pursuing armed revolution. Shah stressed that India, as a constitutional democracy, cannot justify such violence. He asserted that Naxalism is not about development but driven by Leftist ideology, and criticized attempts to equate Naxalites with freedom fighters like Bhagat Singh and Birsa Munda. Reiterating the government’s stance, Shah said dialogue is possible only if arms are surrendered, warning that those using violence will face strict action. He emphasized that the government is committed to justice, democracy, and eliminating extremism from the country.
