Pakistan Brings Up the Ram Mandir Issue at UN Meeting and Attempts to Interfere in India’s Affairs Once More

Pakistan attempted to interfere in Indian matters once again at the OIC ambassadorial summit in New York. Munir Akram, Pakistan’s UN representative, brought up the subject of the Ayodhya Ram temple’s dedication.

In a letter to Miguel Angel Moratinos, the UN Alliance of Civilizations’ senior official, Akram expressed his “condemnation” of the Ram Temple’s building and dedication. In the letter sent at the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) summit, he said that “this trend poses a significant threat to the social, economic, and political well-being of Indian Muslims, as well as to the harmony and peace in the region.”

Pakistan has attempted to meddle in India’s domestic issues on many occasions before. It has attempted in vain to bring the Kashmir dispute to the UN’s attention in the past. Top government officials in New Delhi told CNN-News18 earlier this week that Pakistan had no business with the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya.

Referring to Pakistan’s much-maligned legal system, foreign ministry officials said, “We are not a banana republic like them— the judiciary is set and operates on the directives of the ISI (Pakistani espionage agency Inter-Services Intelligence)”.

They emphasized the legal steps that took place before to the temple’s construction and said that the subject had been considered by India’s highest court. “The courts have examined this matter for many years. It has been heard by every court, including the highest court. Minority judges were also engaged in the decision, and no significant ruling was rendered by a single bench, according to the authorities.

The officials emphasized that India has granted space to all religions and said that Pakistan was attempting to cause problems by inciting Muslims in India to participate in festivities in the Uttar Pradesh city of Ayodhya, where Prime Minister Narendra Modi was present for the deity’s pran pratishtha ceremony.
