**India Rebukes Pakistan at UN Over Child Atrocities and Terrorism**
**United Nations, June 26, 2025** – India’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador P. Harish, strongly condemned Pakistan’s accusations and attempts to divert attention from its own record of child rights violations and cross-border terrorism. The statement came during a UN Security Council open debate on preventing grave violations against children.
Ambassador Harish dismissed Pakistan’s remarks as “politically motivated” and an attempt to smear India and undermine UN processes. He highlighted the UN Secretary General’s report, which details serious violations against children in armed conflict within Pakistan.
The Indian representative also reminded the council of the Pahalgam attacks, holding Pakistan accountable for its role in fostering “rampant cross-border terrorism.” India firmly rejected Pakistan’s allegations and asserted its commitment to combating terrorism and protecting children’s rights. The exchange underscores the ongoing tensions between the two nations and their differing perspectives on regional security.
