New Delhi:

Indian diplomat Petal Gahlot, who effectively dismantled terror-sponsor Pakistan's narrative at the UN General Assembly, also possesses impressive musical talents. Her skilled guitar performances are as remarkable as her diplomatic prowess in exposing Islamabad's protection of terrorists and their attempts to conceal their role as a terrorism hub.

Multiple videos featuring Ms Gahlot, First Secretary at India's Permanent Mission to the UN, playing guitar have become viral across social media platforms, with viewers appreciating both her musical abilities and her powerful diplomatic delivery.

In one video, Ms Gahlot can be heard singing in French while playing an acoustic guitar.

A previous post on X shows her performing the song 'Kabira' from the 2013 Bollywood film 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' with an acoustic guitar.

"The feeling of confusion, of being torn and of wanting everything and just one thing at the same time, encapsulated in this song from 12 years ago. A cover of 'Kabira' from Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani," Ms Gahlot wrote in her May 5 post.

In her professional capacity - as demonstrated at the UN - she displays the same passion and dedication.

She criticized Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's address at the 80th session of the UNGA, describing it as absurd theatrics and glorification of terrorism.

"This assembly witnessed absurd theatrics this morning from the Prime Minister of Pakistan, who once again glorified terrorism, which is so central to their foreign policy," Ms Gahlot stated, highlighting India's counter-terrorism operations, particularly Operation Sindoor, which targeted terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).

"A picture speaks a thousand words, and we saw many pictures of terrorists slain in Bahawalpur and Muridke terror complexes by Indian forces during Operation Sindoor. When senior Pakistani military and civilian officials publicly glorify and pay homage to such notorious terrorists, can there be any doubt about the proclivities of this regime?" Ms Gahlot emphasized.

Responding to Shehbaz Sharif's claims regarding the recent conflict between the two nations, Ms Gahlot dismissed them as "bizarre" and misleading.

"The Prime Minister of Pakistan also advanced a bizarre account of the recent conflict with India. The record on this matter is clear, as till May 9, Pakistan was threatening more attacks on India. But on May 10, their military pleaded with us directly for a cessation to the fighting," she explained.

Her strong statements followed Mr Sharif's address, during which he controversially attributed to US President Donald Trump the prevention of a potential war between India and Pakistan.
