In his address to the General Assembly and while visiting Washington, Pakistan's Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had sought UN and US intervention to settle the Kashmir dispute with India.
India considers the UN resolutions as outdated and in his address to the UN General Assembly, Singh had virtually rejected Sharif's demand for resolution of the Kashmir issue on the basis of these resolutions.
Singh had said that India favoured settlement of all issues on the basis of the Simla Agreement of 1972.
