ISLAMABAD – Pakistan Foreign Office strongly react over Indian governmentfalsly implied action on AJK and GB.

Islamabad has rejected New Delhi move to include Azad Jammu and Kashmir(AJK) and Gilgit-Baltistan (G-B) in Indian TV weather bulletin, falselyimplying them as part of its territory.

“Like the so-called ‘political maps’ issued last year by India, this moveis also legally void, contrary to reality, and in violation of the relevantUnited Nations Security Council (UNSC) Resolutions,” Foreign OfficeSpokesperson Aisha Farooqui said in a statement on Friday.

She said that the latest attempt is another “mischievous Indian action” insupport of a false claim and further evidence of its irresponsiblebehaviour.Ad

“No illegal and unilateral steps by India can change the “disputed” statusof Jammu and Kashmir, recognised as such by the international communityincluding the United Nations,” Farooqui said, adding that such moves by NewDelhi cannot prejudice the inalienable right to self-determination of thepeople of Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IOJ&K).

Pakistan would urge India not to make baseless assertions and to abstainfrom misleading the world community through unfounded claims on regionsthat constitute internationally recognised disputed territories, thespokesperson said.
