Paulomi Tripathi, the diplomat representing India, shows a photo of Ummer Fayaz, a young army officer

India had a photograph to show the United Nations General Assembly on Monday -- that of Ummer Fayaz, the young army officer who had been dragged out of a wedding party and gunned down by terrorists in Kashmir in May this year. Paulomi Tripathi, the diplomat who was representing India, said it was the reality which Pakistan was trying to "obfuscate" by pushing "fake" photographs of Gaza as images from Kashmir.

The photo in question was one brandished on Saturday by Maleeha Lodhi, Pakistan's permanent representative to UN. Ms Lodhi claimed the girl, whose face bore multiple bruises, was a victim of pellet guns in Kashmir and cited it as proof of what she called "Indian brutality".


But the photo turned out to be of Rawya Abu Joma, a resident of Palestine, which was clicked by award winning photographer Heidi Levine in 2014. The girl, who was 17 years old at the time, had been injured in an Israeli airstrike.

"The Permanent Representative of Pakistan misled this assembly by displaying this picture to spread falsehoods about India. A fake picture to push a completely false narrative," said Ms Tripathi.


In view of the "cynical and misleading attempt" by Pakistan, India, she said, was constrained to show the "real picture of pain inflicted by the nefarious designs of Pakistan".

Ummer Fayaz, a Kashmiri, had gone to his cousin's wedding in south Kashmir's Kulgam. But amid the festivities, he was dragged out on by three terrorists, tortured and killed. His bullet-ridden body was found the next day. The murder, meant to deter young Kashmiris from integrating with the mainsteam, had evoked outrage across the nation.

After India's response on Monday, the Foreign Ministry tweeted:A tale of 2 narratives @UN

Earlier on Saturday, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj had ripped apart Pakistan during her address at the UN General Assembly, emphasising how the neighbouring country had become the breeding ground of terror.

India, she said, had marched ahead since Independence, building institutions that are the "pride of the world". Pakistan, in contrast, has only "produced terrorists and terrorist camps... Lashkar-e-Taiba, Jaish-e-Mohammad, Hijbul Mujahideen, Haqqani Network," she had said.

Now no Pakistani comment here...because Pakistan is thoroughly exposed before the international community.

What exposed? A blunder doesn't change the fact that the world is more than aware of IOK's ugly truths.

Look at your own table man! The best that India can come up with is the death of an army officer as 'proof' of terrorism. How is that going to convince the world of anything?

Whatever it is that your smoking, you really need to tell me what it is.

Pakistan invariably shoots itself in the foot. Only their domestic audience believe their narratives. Let's see if anyone listens to Pakistan and appoints a UN Envoy for J&K.

India itself has not bothered declaring you a terror state. It calls you a state sponsor of terrorism. Declaring you a terror state would entail cutting off all diplomatic ties.

Pakistan is losing it badly. Pak diplomats are making fool of Pakistani public.
You can't counter India on terrorism issue on world platform when you are hiding most dangerous terrorists in your backyards.
Most of these terrorists are found and dead but still there are many.
And you Pakistani members are thumping your chest on the base of false speech of your politicians. The World is not so dumb to see the truth. Shame.

Indian representatives cant even debate the core issue and have to resort to calling out a single photo, that is telling of how heated the situation is in their offices. The rest of the world and international human rights groups are fully aware of India's atrocities, too bad Indians are blinded by their egos and hatred of Pakistan to ever see it themselves.
