India Slams Pakistan Over Train Hijack Claims, Labels It Global Terrorism Hub

India delivered a scathing rebuke to Pakistan on March 14, 2025, dismissing Islamabad’s baseless accusations linking New Delhi to the recent Jaffar Express hijacking by the Balochistan Liberation Army as “absurd and malicious.” In a fiery press briefing, Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal turned the tables, branding Pakistan the “global hub of terrorism” and pointing to its own internal chaos as evidence of its culpability. The sharp retort follows Pakistan’s attempt to deflect blame for the March 11 hijacking in Balochistan, escalating tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbors.
