IPU Assembly: India on Monday lambasted Pakistan during the 146th Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) Assembly in Bahrain.
During its address to the Assembly, Pakistan’s envoy made the customary reference to Kashmir. India attacked Pakistan at the IPU, calling pakistan “exporter of terrorists” and reaffirming that Pakistan has no locus standi over Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh.
“It is sad that Pakistan has decided once again to exploit the august forum by referencing Jammu and Kashmir, which is an essential part of India,” Rajya Sabha MP Dr Sasmit Patra remarked in his remarks. This mention is totally improper.”
Dr Patra further said, “The Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh have been and will always remain an integral and inalienable part of India. No amount of rhetoric and propaganda from any country can override this fact. Pakistan has no locus standi to comment on India’s internal affairs. We have repeatedly called upon it to vacate the Indian territories under its illegal and forcible occupation with immediate effect. It is ironic that a country, which is a known exporter of terrorists, and responsible for inflicting countless cross-border terrorist attacks in Jammu and Kashmir is claiming to champion the cause of human rights.”
