India Slams Pakistan At UNSC For Peddling Falsehoods, Calls For A Council Representative Of Current Global Realities

India on Thursday (9 January) slammed Pakistan at a United Nations Security Council (UNSC) debate for peddling false narrative against New Delhi and said that there are no takers for the Islamic republic’s “malware” in the council, reports ANI.

"It is increasingly acknowledged that the Council faces crises of identity and legitimacy, as well as relevance and performance. The globalisation of terror networks, the weaponisation of new technologies, the inability to counter those resorting to subversive statecraft are showing up the shortcomings of the Council," India’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Syed Akbaruddin said during an open debate at the UNSC.

"One delegation that epitomises the dark arts has, yet again, displayed its wares by peddling falsehoods earlier today. These we dismiss with disdain. My simple response to Pakistan is even though it is late, neighbour, heal thyself of your malaise. There are no takers here for your malware," he added.

Akbaruddin also stressed upon the need of a Council which is a “representative” of current global realities rather than one that rests merely on the claim that it existed at the inception.
