Pakistan’s interior minister in a statement has said that India has been using soil of neighboring Afghanistan for conspiracies against Pakistan.

While expressing hope that China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) project would be made successful, Pakistan’s Interior Minister Ahsan Iqbal has alleged that “conspiracies” are being hatched by India against ambitious CPEC, and they would be foiled.

Iqbal’s remark comes after Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi on Tuesday said that China and Pakistan wanted Afghanistan to join the CPEC.

Iqbal added that the US should stop hurling threats at Pakistan and recognize sacrifices it had rendered in the war against terrorism.

Earlier, Pakistan military spokesman Major-General Asif Ghafoor in a statement had rejected notion that Pakistan is not doing enough to fight armed groups. Pakistan’s military has also warned United States against possibility of taking unilateral action against armed groups on its soil.
