Some Pakistanis see the continuation of “belligerent policy” from their nuclear rival.
Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan at a July political rally in Islamabad.
At the time, Khan suggested that a reelection victory by Modi, a hard-line Hindu nationalist and leader of the BJP, might actually make it easier for the two sides to make progress on Kashmir and other issues. The Indian-controlled portion of Kashmir has been roiled by unrest in the past two years, and the comment drew widespread skepticism within Pakistan.
Pakistan’s comments came one day after the foreign ministers of India and Pakistan held an informal meeting on the sidelines of a Shanghai Cooperation Organization gathering in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. Sherry Rehman, a Pakistani senator and opposition leader, tweeted Thursday morning that the likely BJP landslide “will mean a tougher neighborhood for Pakistan. The new BJP’s mandate . . . is extremism, exclusion.” Translating sweet talk into peace, she added, is “unlikely.”The Indian election was followed intensely by Pakistani news outlets this month, and Dawn’s website provided live updates of the results Thursday.
