Pakistan providing sustenance to terrorism: India to UN

June 15, 2017:    India has slammed Pakistan for providing sustenance to the scourge of terrorism in Kashmir.
Responding to Pakistan’s statement at the 35th session of the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC), India accused Pakistan of using terror to destabilize Kashmir.
The statement blamed Islamabad for supporting protests in the Valley.

India told the UNHRC that concrete evidences about cross-border encouragement and support for the protests in Kashmir has been handed over to Pakistan.
Instead of working with a sense of purpose to address this issue, Pakistan resorts to short-sighted tactics to divert attention, New Delhi said.
India also attacked Islamabad for once again trying to misuse the UNHRC platform to pursue its political objectives.

New Delhi said, Pakistan’s unsolicited and unwarranted comments pertaining to Jammu and Kashmir, which is an integral part of India, are factually incorrect and bear no relationship to reality.
India said, the foremost challenge to stability in Kashmir is the scourge of terrorism, which receives sustenance from Pakistan.
Contrary to Pakistan’s claims, and in gross violation of UN Security Council resolution 1267, the designated terrorists entities and organisations continue to carry out their activities freely as reported in the Pakistan’s media,” the statement said.

India said Pakistan had with complete impunity channelised billions of dollars from international aid to training, financing and supporting terrorist groups as terror proxies against it neighbours.
Indian delegation also highlighted that Pakistan has witnessed continuous degradation and weakening of its institutions and PoK is administered by a “deep state” and has become an epicenter of terrorism.
“Pakistan’s human rights record in PoK and Balochistan is deplorable. It has had no hesitation in using air power and artillery against its own people, not once but repeatedly over the years,” Indian delegation informed UNHRC in Geneva.     (AIR NEWS)
