Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spokesman Nafees Zakaria on Thursday said that there is "ample and undeniable" evidence to prove India is involved in financing terrorism in Pakistan, Radio Pakistan reported.
At his weekly news briefing in Islamabad today, Zakaria said Pakistan is a "victim" of Indian-sponsored terrorism, adding there is a confessional statement from Kulbhushan Yadav, an agent of Research and Analysis Wing, India's intelligence agency.
The former US defence secretary Chuck Hagel had also stated that New Delhi is trying to destabilise Pakistan via Afghanistan, Zakaria said, adding there are statements from some of the "top Indian leaders" also available in this regard.
He said that Pakistan has made an unparalleled effort to wipe out terrorism and its success in this regard has been acknowledged the world over.
"We have called upon India to pursue the path of dialogue rather than confrontation and terrorism," the foreign ministry's spokesperson said, adding that India keeps "shying away" from talks to resolve outstanding disputes, including the core dispute of Jammu and Kashmir.
"Even the international community recognises the significance of the Kashmir issue," Zakaria said, adding India declaring the disputed territory an "inseparable part" of itself is in violation of many of the United Nations' resolutions.
He emphasised that resolving just this dispute can normalise relations between the two countries and stabilise the region, saying that a genocide and state-sponsored terrorism is underway in Kashmir and that Pakistan stands in solidarity with the Kashmiri people.
Pakistan also made recommendations to India to curb the nuclear arms race in South Asia. However, India did not issue a satisfactory response, he added.
"The new nuclear installations have caused instability in the region and they weren't built keeping the standards laid out by the international community in mind," Zakaria added.
Zakaria also noted that terrorism and instability in Afghanistan has affected Pakistan the most.
"Therefore, no state wants peace in Afghanistan more than Pakistan does," the foreign affairs spokesperson added.
