Bhutto FACT-CHECKED at UN Over 'Muslim Vilification' Lie | Journalist EXPOSES Anti-India Claim

Pakistan's Bilawal Bhutto Zardari faced an awkward moment at a UN press briefing after a journalist fact-checked his claim that India was "demonising Muslims" following the Pahalgam terror attack. Bhutto alleged India was politicising the tragedy to vilify Muslims, but the journalist countered with firsthand experience, highlighting Muslim officers leading Indian Army briefings. Bhutto, visibly unsettled, admitted, "You're absolutely right." The episode casts doubt on Pakistan’s narrative as Bhutto leads a diplomatic team to counter India’s global stance post-Operation Sindoor. #BilawalBhutto #UNPressBriefing #IndiaPakistan #OperationSindoor #FactCheck #PahalgamAttack #IndianArmy #PakClaims #IndianMuslims #ColSofiyaQureshi #VyomikaSingh #KashmirIssue #Terrorism #IslamabadDiplomacy #UNNews #GlobalPolitics #PakNarrative #IndiaDefense #IndianMuslimOfficers #PakistanUN #JournalistFactCheck #SouthAsiaNews #BustedAtUN #BhuttoEmbarrassed #KashmirTensions #IndiaPakistanTensions #PPP #BilawalAtUN #BreakingNews #IndiaNarrative #TruthAtUN Also Read Bilawal Bhutto Admits UN Hurdles On Kashmir As Pakistan, India Launch Parallel Diplomacy In US :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/bilawal-bhutto-admits-un-hurdles-on-kashmir-as-pakistan-india-launch-parallel-diplomacy-in-us-4171933.html?ref=DMDesc Team Shashi Tharoor, Bilawal Bhutto To Jostle In US This Week As India And Pakistan Step Up Diplomatic Push :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/team-shashi-tharoor-bilawal-bhutto-to-jostle-in-us-this-week-as-india-and-pakistan-step-up-diplomat-4170769.html?ref=DMDesc United Nations Under-Secretary-General For Peace Operations Praises India :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/united-nations-under-secretary-general-for-peace-operations-praises-india-4168359.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.346~HT.408~GR.125~
