Former president Pervez Musharraf on Friday took India's media to task for fabricating and cooking up false stories against Pakistan’s armed forces. Speaking at Indian TV channel Times Now live from London, Musharraf said India was fabricating false stories to put Pakistan’s army and ISI in bad light through its media.

When asked by anchor why Pakistan was not acting against Lashkar-e-Taiba, Musharraf questioned as to why India was not doing anything against extremist party Shiv Sena. “Can Indian government dare to take action against Shiv Sena,” he shot back at the anchor.

Responding to a question about long march,
Musharraf said India had no right to ask about Pakistan’s internal matters. “Pakistan army did not mutilate the body of any Indian soldier and it never does so,” he replied to a question.

He said India was deliberately escalating at the Line of Control. Pakistan army, he said, believes in resolving all disputes, including Kashmir, with India. “Is this your democracy that India sent back Pakistan’s hockey players and artists,” he questioned? Musharraf’s counterattack forced the Indian anchor to end the discussion in the middle of the show.
