UNB, Dhaka :
Pakistan on Tuesday described as ‘unfortunate’ the remarks made by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Bangladesh where he had accused it of creating ‘nuisance’ and constantly troubling India by promoting terrorism.
“Pakistan believes in peaceful co-existence and maintaining good neighbourly relations with India…characterization of bilateral relations by Prime Minister Modi as “nuisance” is unfortunate,” said Pakistan Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Qazi M Khalilullah with reference to Modi’s allegations against Pakistan in Dhaka.
Taking note of Prime Minister Modi’s statements during his visit to Bangladesh in which he acknowledged Indian government’s involvement in the events of 1971 in the then Eastern Province of Pakistan, the Spokesperson said that it only confirmed Pakistan’s stance on India’s negative role against a sovereign neighbouring state, according to Pakistan Foreign Affairs Ministry.
