A video of Indian diplomat R Srinivas’ reaction to Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s address at the UN General Assembly ( UNGA ) on Friday has gone viral on social media.
His reaction came as Sharif spoke about last year’s military confrontation between India and Pakistan and presented claims detailing Islamabad’s account of what happened.
Sharif spoke about the four-day military confrontation in May 2025, which broke out after India’s Operation Sindoor , which was launched after the Pahalgam terror attack .

The reaction came as Sharif outlined Pakistan’s account of the conflict and raised several claims against India, including the Indus Waters Treaty and Kashmir. He also praised Pakistan’s armed forces for their response. “At the heart of the issue is the long-standing practice of cross-border terrorism by Pakistan. Our right to defend ourselves against terrorism will be exercised and continued.
He also credited US President Donald Trump for “his role” in preventing the situation from escalating further. Speaking at the UN, Sharif said Pakistan had exercised its “inherent right of self-defence” under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter during the period of tension. India has, however, repeatedly said that the ceasefire between the two countries was agreed through direct communication between India and Pakistan, and that no third party was involved. Terrorism by Pakistan will have consequences,” Gahlot said.
We demonstrated last year that terrorists will have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.
