India dismisses Pak attempt to rake up Kashmir at UNGA

“We regret the unwarranted reference made in this forum to the Indian State of Jammu and Kashmir. Let me be clear and reiterate that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India, and references such as this only detract from the important cause of the Palestinian people and their inalienable rights to self-determination,” visiting Member of Parliament from India P Rajeev said.

Alluding to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's statement at the General Assembly in September, Khan had said India wrongly stated that the epicentre of terrorism is in Pakistan.  

“The struggle of the people of Jammu and Kashmir cannot be characterised as terrorism. Nor can ‘epicentre of terrorism' be wrongly located by India to Pakistan, simply because it raises the issue of Jammu and Kashmir in the United Nations.  Pakistan is the worst victim of terrorism, whose sources, strategies and execution emanate from our immediate neighbourhood,” Khan said.
