Today New Delhi’s representative at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) said that no amount of empty rhetoric by Pakistan will change the reality that Jammu & Kashmir is part of India.
India’s blistering attack on its belligerent neighbor came following comments earlier this month by Pakistan on the status of Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir (PoK). Pakistan had said that the reference to PoK in a recent UN report on alleged rights violations+should in no way be construed to create a false sense of equivalence with Kashmir. India today made known that if anyone was deluded about reality it is Pakistan.
“One delegation has yet again misused the platform to make an unwarranted reference to the Indian state of Jammu & Kashmir. J&K is an integral and inalienable part of India. No amount of empty rhetoric by Pakistan will change this reality,” said India’s Sandeep Kumar Bayyapu, first secretary, while exercising the right to reply, about Pakistan’s June 14 comments.

On the other hand, Pakistan used the report to again raise the Kashmir issue on an international forum as is it won’t and said that the report’s reference to the Pakistan administered part of Kashmir, including Gilgit-Baltistan, should in no way be construed to create a false sense of equivalence with rights violations in Kashmir.
Today India reminded Pakistan about what the reality actually is that Jammu & Kashmir will always be a part of India.
