ISLAMABAD: Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi says Brussels-based non-government organisation, EU DisinfoLab group seconded Pakistan’s stance on India.

Qureshi said an impression was created through media outlets that the situation in occupied Kashmir is normal. India used ANI, a Delhi-based news agency, to disseminate fake news, he disclosed, adding it also provided material for shady activities.

He said: “The recent report of EU DisinfoLab titled Indian Chronicles has exposed India trying to tarnish Pakistan’s image.” “All such reports vindicate Pakistan and back up its position in front of the international community”.

India used fake NGOs as a tool to peddle propaganda against the country, the foreign minister pointed out.
