Modi’s Time in Power Is Coming to an End Says Khawaja Asif

ISLAMABAD (RNN TV) — Defense Minister Khawaja Asif, in a strong statement on Tuesday, said that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s political days are numbered, asserting that the Indian people will ultimately determine his fate.

Speaking to the media in Islamabad, Asif addressed rising political and diplomatic tensions between India and Pakistan, criticizing Modi’s recent national address as an attempt to downplay deepening internal and external criticism. “The situation has become too complex to resolve with mere statements,” he said.

Asif emphasized that growing dissatisfaction with Modi’s leadership is evident both within India and on the global stage. “The people of India will decide Modi’s future. His time is running out,” he stated.

Turning to Pakistan’s diplomatic stance, the defense minister outlined key issues the country plans to raise in future talks with India. At the top of the list is terrorism, which Asif said has severely impacted Pakistan—often as a result of India’s alleged involvement.

“Pakistan has borne the brunt of terrorism for over 25 years, and the world is now acknowledging this reality,” he said, adding that Modi’s past remarks about investigating terrorism should now be matched by action.

Khawaja Asif accused India of playing a destabilizing role in the region and called for international scrutiny of its alleged support for terrorism, referencing incidents not just in Pakistan, but also in countries like Canada and the United States.

“We have faced threats on both our eastern and western borders. India’s involvement in terrorism is well-documented and must be brought to global attention,” he said.

On Kashmir, Asif reaffirmed that the disputed region remains a core issue in bilateral relations. He called for meaningful and result-oriented dialogue to resolve the conflict, which he said cannot be sidelined any longer.

He also addressed growing concerns over the Indus Waters Treaty, criticizing India’s attempts to politicize the agreement. Asif warned that the treaty is a binding legal document and cannot be unilaterally altered or abandoned.

“The treaty must be respected by both sides. It’s not open to selective interpretation,” he asserted.

Asif concluded with a warning that Pakistan would not shy away from exposing what he described as India’s role as a sponsor of cross-border terrorism, vowing to raise the matter in upcoming diplomatic engagements.
