India blocks X account of Pakistan Defence Minister Khawaja Asif

The Central government on Tuesday blocked the X account of Pakistan Defence Minister Khawaja Asif following the barbaric terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam that left 26 people dead, most of them tourists.

The action came as Pakistan’s role as a “rogue state fuelling global terrorism” was laid bare by the public admission made by Asif. A Sky News interviewer



last week asked Asif if Pakistan had a long history of “backing and supporting and training and funding” terrorist organisations.

He candidly admitted that it had. In the interview, Asif had said, “We have been doing this dirty work for the United States (US) for about three decades… and West, including Britain,” when questioned about Pakistan’s ties with terror outfits.
