New York, June 3, 2025 — Pakistan’s former Foreign Minister, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, found himself at the receiving end of a pointed rebuttal during a press conference at the United Nations Headquarters on Tuesday, following remarks that sought to portray India in a negative light.
Addressing the media, Bhutto-Zardari alleged that Muslims were being "demonised" in India—a claim widely perceived as part of Pakistan’s continued attempts to internationalise internal Indian matters. However, his narrative was swiftly challenged by a foreign journalist present at the briefing. At UN, Bilawal Bhutto claimed that Indian Govt is demonising muslims in India after Pahalgam Terror attack in Kashmir.

The journalist recounted witnessing India's recent Operation Sindoor press briefing, which was notably led by a senior Indian Muslim officer. The firsthand account directly contradicted Bhutto-Zardari’s assertions, exposing the weakness in his argument.
Confronted with this factual rebuttal, the former minister offered no verbal response and simply nodded—visibly left without a counter.
The exchange underscored growing international scrutiny of politically motivated rhetoric at global forums and reflected a broader awareness of ground realities in India, especially among independent foreign media representatives.
