MEA Rejects OIC's 'Anti-India' References, Accuses Pakistan of Orchestrating Them | 52nd OIC Council of Foreign Ministers Meeting Baghdad | UPSC Current Affairs 2026 | International Relations
BREAKING: India Slams OIC! MEA Says - No Locus Standi!
Welcome to Vajirao & Reddy Institute - India's Top Potential Training Institute for IAS | 37 Years of Excellence.
What Happened?
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on 19th October 2026 categorically rejected the anti-India references in resolutions adopted at the 52nd Session of OIC Council of Foreign Ministers (CFM) held in Baghdad, Iraq on 17-18 October 2026.
MEA Statement Key Points:
- References to India are "MALICIOUS, BIASED and FALSE" - Orchestrated by Pakistan
- "Disappointed that OIC has once again allowed itself to be misused by Pakistan for its bigoted agenda"
- OIC has NO LOCUS STANDI whatsoever to comment on matters strictly internal to India
- UTs of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh are integral and inalienable parts of India - Politically motivated propaganda can never alter this reality
- OIC's repeated endorsement of patently malicious propaganda raises serious questions about its credibility and integrity
- MEA Spokesperson: Randhir Jaiswal
MEA Counter Narrative:
Since Abrogation of Article 370 (5th Aug 2019), J&K has seen significant economic growth - Infrastructure Development, Tourism Boom, Connectivity benefiting people directly.
In Stark Contrast - In PoJK (Pakistan Occupied Jammu & Kashmir / PoK):
Pakistan has unleashed violence, repression and brutality on civilian protesters, killing scores including women and children. No amount of media blackout can hide these grave human rights violations.
India's Stand - Only 2 Issues Remain in J&K:
1. Pakistan vacating areas under its illegal and forcible occupation
2. Ceasing its continued support to cross-border terrorism
Other References Rejected: Allegations of Islamophobia in India - MEA called it desperate attempt by Pakistan to divert attention from its own record of minority persecution, sectarian violence, governance failure and political instability.
About OIC - Important for Prelims:
- Organisation of Islamic Cooperation - Established 1969 (Rabat, Morocco)
- HQ: Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
- 57 Member States - 2nd Largest Inter-Governmental Organization after UN
- Founding Members include Pakistan
- India is NOT a member (Observer request blocked by Pakistan). Guest invite in 2019 - Sushma Swaraj attended 46th CFM Abu Dhabi.
- Aim: Protect interests of Muslim world, Promote Islamic solidarity
- OIC Contact Group on J&K - India always rejects
Why OIC Anti-India? - Pakistan Factor:
Pakistan uses OIC platform every year to rake Kashmir, Islamophobia, Babri Masjid, etc. OIC resolutions are not binding but have symbolic value. India maintains bilateral ties with key OIC members like Saudi Arabia, UAE, Indonesia, Iran separately.
UPSC Relevance - GS2 IR: Effect of Policies of Developed & Developing Countries on India's Interest, Diaspora, Important International Institutions, India and Islamic World, Article 370, PoJK Issue.
