India criticises Pakistan for Raising Kashmir issue at UN
Guwahati: India criticised Pakistan after Pakistan’s UN representative brought up the Kashmir issue.
It claimed that the Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh are and always will be a “inalienable” part of India, and that no amount of rhetoric and propaganda can change this.
Pratik Mathur, Counsellor in India’s Permanent Mission to the UN said this after Pakistan’s Permanent Representative at the UN Munir Akram spoke about Jammu and Kashmir in his statement at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) meeting.
Mathur said, “The Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh were, are and will always be an integral and inalienable part of India. No amount of misinformation, rhetoric or propaganda from any country can change that fact.”
It should be noted that Pakistan frequently brings up the Jammu and Kashmir issue at various UN forums, disregarded the meeting’s agenda and topics of discussion.
Ruchira Kamboj, India’s Permanent Representative to the UN, said she would not waste the Council’s time by responding to such “mischievous” remarks after India attacked Pakistan for bringing up the Jammu and Kashmir issue during a Security Council meeting earlier on Monday.
