Pakistan’s Gen Z should take note of Islamabad’s support for terrorism against India: MEA

The Indian Ministry of External Affairs stated that Pakistan's younger generation should recognize their country's history of state-sponsored terrorism against India. Officials dismissed recent online social media support from Pakistan as irrelevant to the current frozen state of bilateral relations.
Why it matters
It underscores the persistent geopolitical hostility between India and Pakistan and the use of public diplomacy to address cross-border tensions.
India on Tuesday (July 28, 2026) reiterated that Pakistan continues to promote cross-border terrorism as a state policy, with the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) saying Pakistan’s Gen Z should "take note" that people of India, including the Indian Gen Z, are aware of Islamabad’s support for terrorism against India.
“As we are all aware, Pakistan has been sponsoring cross-border terrorism against India for decades. The people of India, including Gen Z, have been demanding that the Pakistani state-sponsored cross-border terrorism must come to an end. We hope their counterparts are taking due note,” MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, regarding the online support extended by the Pakistani social media handlers to the Cockroach Janta Party’s recent protest at Jantar Mantar. Mr. Jaiswal was speaking at the bi-weekly media briefing.
