Strident Pakistan presses for UN envoy on Kashmir: 

Context

Recently, at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), Pakistan blamed India and Afghanistan for the volatile security situation in the region and also denied charges of harboring terrorists who target the two countries.

What is Pakistan’s view?

  • It stroke a stringent note against its neighbors India and Afghanistan for promoting terrorism in the region.
  • It portrayed Pakistan as a victim of terrorism
  • Pakistan sought the appointment of a special UN envoy on Kashmir
  • The country also accused India of human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir.
  • Pakistan holds the view that India has responded to Kashmiris’ demand for self-determination, with massive and indiscriminate force, indiscriminately shootings on children, women and youth which constitute war crimes.

How India reciprocated?

  • India (and also Afghanistan) refuted the accusations lamented by Pakistan.
  • India reacted pretty strongly and called Pakistan a geographical synonym of terror.
  • With regard to Kashmir the country made it very clear that Kashmir was, is and will always remain an integral part of India.
  • Indian administration said that Pakistan has diverted international military and development aid towards creating a dangerous infrastructure of terror on its own territory and now it is paying the price of its own creation.
