SRINAGAR: A day after Pakistan sought the international community’s intervention on the Kashmir issue, India responded at UNHRC saying Jammu and Kashmir “was, is and shall forever” remain an integral part of India.
Indian Express in its report said that a top Indian diplomat said at the UN Human Rights Council’s meeting on Wednesday, speaking at the 43rd session of the UN Human Rights Council which is being held here in Switzerland from February 24 to March 20, Vikas Swarup, Secretary (West), the Ministry of External Affairs, described Pakistan as the epicentre of global terrorism.
He called for decisive action against states who direct, control, fund and shelter terrorists, in an obvious reference to Pakistan, which is accused by its neighbours of providing safe havens to terror groups.
His remarks came a day after Pakistan’s Minister for Human Rights Shireen Mazari on Tuesday alleged that India continues to violate the human rights of the Kashmiri people and demanded the immediate repeal of all actions by India on August 5 last year.
