India on Monday exposed Pakistan's litany of lies it peddled in the UN after Islamabad's UN envoy claimed to have given a statement in the Security Council meeting that was not open to non-members of the 15-nation UN body. The Pakistan Mission falsely claimed that its UN envoy Munir Akram had given a statement at the Security Council debate on Report of the Secretary-General on Threats to International Peace and Security posed by Terrorism Actions.

India's statement exposed the 'five big lies' being peddled and pushed by Pakistan. Dismissing claims that PM Imran Khan's 'Naya' Pakistan has been a target of cross-border terrorism for decades, the Indian Mission in its statement said, "A lie repeated a hundred times will not become truth. The biggest sponsor of cross-border terrorism against India now tries to masquerade itself as a victim of terrorism by India!"
