Pakistan has strongly responded to India’s claims on Jammu and Kashmir during a United Nations session, calling them “recycled lies.” The statement came during the UN’s Fourth Committee meeting, where Pakistan’s representative reaffirmed that Jammu and Kashmir remains a disputed territory under international law.
The Pakistani envoy accused India of spreading false narratives to mislead the global community and divert attention from human rights abuses in the occupied region. He stated that India continues to repeat the same unfounded claims every year to justify its illegal occupation of Jammu and Kashmir.
Pakistan emphasized that India’s actions in the region—including restrictions on freedom of speech, arbitrary detentions, and demographic changes—violate international law and UN resolutions. The representative said such actions cannot alter the legal status of the territory.
The Pakistani delegate reiterated that Jammu and Kashmir’s future must be decided through a free and impartial plebiscite under UN supervision, as promised in the UN Security Council resolutions. He said Pakistan will continue to raise its voice for the Kashmiri people’s right to self-determination.
Rejecting Indian allegations of cross-border terrorism, Pakistan said India is using such claims to cover its state oppression in the valley. The envoy accused India of sponsoring terrorism against Pakistan and destabilizing regional peace through aggressive actions.
Pakistan also urged the international community to hold India accountable for its human rights violations. The representative added that lasting peace in South Asia depends on resolving the Kashmir issue through dialogue and justice.
The statement reflects Pakistan’s consistent diplomatic stance on Kashmir and its rejection of India’s attempts to misrepresent the issue at international forums.
