New Delhi: India on Friday lashed out at Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan over his recent statement and said that Pakistan should be the last country to lecture on “plurality and inclusive society”.

“If Pakistan is ready for dialogue, why hasn’t Pakistan taken any action against Mumbai and Pathankot terror attack perpetrators? They continue to provide support to the banned terrorist outfits,” Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) official spokesperson Raveesh Kumar said at a media briefing here today.

“Pakistan said minorities are not treated well in India, I think Pakistan should be the last country to lecture us on plurality and inclusive society. We and the world are fully aware of the situation of minorities in their country,” he added.

Imran Khan in December last year said that giving equal rights to the religious minorities is the cornerstone of the vision of Pakistan’s founding father and that the country will show Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi how to treat these groups.
