Responding to Prime Minister Narendra Modis reference to Balochistan in his Independence Day speech, Pakistan today claimed that this proved its contention that India has been allegedly fomenting terrorism in the province.

Pakistan also asserted that the situation in Balochistan cannot be compared with Kashmir.

Pakistan Prime Minister's Adviser on Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz, while responding to Modis Independence Day speech, said the Premier was only trying to divert world attention from the grim tragedy that has been unfolding in Kashmir over the past five weeks.

The reference to Balochistan, which is an integral part of Pakistan, only proves Pakistan's contention that India, through its main intelligence agency Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), has been fomenting terrorism in Balochistan, Aziz was quoted as saying by a Foreign Office statement.

Aziz's remarks came after Prime Minister Modi brought up Pakistani atrocities on people of Balochistan and PoK in his Independence Day speech today.
