On Friday, India rejected the allegations by Pakistan stating the use of chemical weapons by its security forces on its civilians in Kashmir. A statement from Ministry of External affairs said that India is in opposition of use of chemical weapons by anyone, at anytime and anywhere.

The spokesperson of Ministry of External affairs of India, Raveesh Kumar said, “We reject allegations made by Pakistan about the reported use of chemical weapons by Indian security forces against Indian citizens. Such allegations aren’t new and totally unfounded”.

He said, “India has repeatedly stated its opposition to using of chemical weapons by anyone, at anytime, anywhere”.

The spokesperson said that Pakistan is behaving in a highly irresponsible manner to present falls in front of the international community. He said, “They are acting in a highly irresponsible manner with sole purpose of repeating untruths in vain hope that international community will start believing in their falsehood”.

On Thursday, Pakistan said that Indian security forces are using the chemical weapons on citizens in Kashmir, while the spokesperson of the Foreign office of Pakistan, Mohammad Faisal was quoted saying by Geo TV, “Pakistan strongly condemns Indian aggression… We want to resolve the Kashmir issue as per the wishes of the Kashmiri people”.

Earlier, Pakistan also said that India has deployed about 500,000 security forces in Jammu and Kashmir. Tensions are rising between two nuclear armed neighbors after a proposed meeting between the foreign ministers of India and Pakistan was called off by India last month.

India cancelled the proposed meeting citing the killing of its soldier at the International Border in Jammu and “glorifying terrorists and terrorism by Pakistan” on release of series of stamps on a terrorist that was killed by Indian security forces in an encounter in Kashmir.
