ISLAMABAD: Federal Railways Minister Hanif Abbasi has strongly criticised the Indian government’s expansionist ideology, declaring that Pakistan will “sink the Akhand Bharat plan into the Indian Ocean.”
Abbasi condemned the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party and its ideological affiliate, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, accusing them of seeking to eliminate Muslims from India. He said the Indian leadership harbours ambitions to expand its influence by taking control of Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, and several other neighbouring countries under the banner of creating a so-called unified Akhand Bharat — a vision rooted in Hindu nationalist ideology.
“This is not just a political fantasy, it’s a dangerous geopolitical agenda,” Abbasi said. “But let me make it clear — I will take a resolution against this plan to Parliament, and with the will of God, we will pass it. We will drown this Akhand Bharat plan in the depths of the Indian Ocean.”
