'Kashmir Will Always Remain An Integral Part': India Blasts Pakistan At UNSC, Calls Out Terror Policy

India launched a strong diplomatic attack on Pakistan at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), accusing Islamabad of using cross-border terrorism as a tool of state policy and reiterating that Jammu and Kashmir is an inseparable part of India. The remarks came during a high-level UNSC debate after Pakistan raised issues unrelated to the meeting's agenda. India Accuses Pakistan of Misusing UN Platform India's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Parvathaneni Harish, criticised Pakistan for diverting the discussion during the Security Council's High-Level Open Debate on "Natural Resources Governance: the Foundation of Peace, Security and Prosperity." Responding to Pakistan's intervention, Harish said India had not intended to introduce bilateral issues but was compelled to reply. "It was not our intention to bring other issues into this forum, but my delegation is compelled to respond to Pakistan, as it has chosen to misuse today's discussion to peddle its false narrative," he said, as per ANI. 'Jammu and Kashmir Will Always Remain Part of India' Reaffirming New Delhi's long-standing position on Jammu and Kashmir, Harish asserted that the Union Territory remains an integral part of the country both constitutionally and legally. "For the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, it has always been, is, and will remain an integral and inalienable part of India. This is the constitutional and legal reality that Pakistan deliberately chooses to ignore," he said. The envoy also argued that the unresolved issue concerning Jammu and Kashmir relates to territory under Pakistan's control. "The only outstanding issue with regard to Jammu and Kashmir is the naked aggression and illegal occupation of India's sovereign territory by Pakistan," he added.

He said meaningful cooperation between the two countries cannot exist in the absence of trust and goodwill. "Our position on the Indus Water Treaty remains clear and consistent. Cooperation on the basis of mutual trust and goodwill cannot be expected when cross-border terrorism is regularly deployed as an instrument of State policy," he said.
