Pakistan’s military has accused India of orchestrating cross-border terrorism, presenting what it calls solid evidence of Indian army officers sponsoring attacks on Pakistani soil, particularly in Balochistan.
Pakistan’s military on Tuesday accused India of carrying out state-sponsored terrorism inside the country, including in Balochistan, claiming to have undeniable proof involving Indian army officers and drones, according to PakistanToday.
Addressing a press conference, Director General Inter-Services Public Relations (DG ISPR) Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said India’s claims linking Pakistan to the April 22 Pahalgam attack were baseless and unsupported by evidence. The attack in Indian-occupied Kashmir left 26 people dead, mostly tourists. No group has claimed responsibility.
“Seven days have passed, and India hasn’t provided even a shred of evidence,” he said. In contrast, he claimed Pakistan had “irrefutable evidence” of India’s involvement in sponsoring terrorist networks within Pakistan.
He described how a Pakistan-trained militant, allegedly backed by Indian army officers, was arrested on April 25 in Jhelum. Authorities recovered an IED, mobile phones, and cash. A follow-up raid on his home revealed an Indian-made drone and Rs1 million. Forensic analysis reportedly confirmed Indian military links.
Lt Gen Chaudhry named four Indian army officers—Major Sandeep Verma, Subedar Sukvinder, Havildar Amit, and another unnamed soldier—as handlers. He played audio said to be of Major Verma coordinating payments and attacks with a militant named Abdul Majeed. The DG claimed the IEDs used in these attacks were delivered by drones and had been used in four incidents.
“It’s not just RAW,” he said. “Serving Indian army officers are directly involved.”
The DG said that following the Pahalgam incident, Indian handlers escalated terrorist activity across Pakistan. Intelligence pointed to plans to activate sleeper cells and militants, including groups like the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).
This spike in activity, he noted, was evident when 54 militants were killed trying to infiltrate via North Waziristan from Afghanistan, with the total rising to 71 in subsequent operations.
In a related escalation, Pakistani forces shot down an Indian drone near the Line of Control (LoC) in Azad Jammu and Kashmir, as cross-border firing continued for the fifth straight night—ending four years of relative calm.
Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi stated that border activity was being closely monitored and that Pakistan would respond firmly to any incursion. He also hinted that India’s rising hostility could be linked to its domestic political motives, including upcoming elections.
Separately, Pakistan’s UN Mission reiterated that the March 11 Jaffar Express attack—where BLA militants hijacked a passenger train—was “externally sponsored” and pointed to its regional adversary as responsible.
That operation ended on March 12, with all 33 attackers killed and hostages safely rescued, according to Pakistan Army officials.
