Seema Pujani, First Secretary, Permanent Mission of India in Geneva.


Geneva: India rejected the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation's (OIC) comments on the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir at the United Nations Human Rights Council, PTI reported.

India censured OIC for allowing Pakistan to hijack and misuse its platform to carry out Islamabad's "nefarious agenda" against New Delhi.

At the High-Level Segment of the 52nd session of the Human Rights Council, Seema Pujani, First Secretary, Permanent Mission of India in Geneva, said, "As regards the OIC statement, we reject the unwarranted references to the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir."

"The fact is that the entire territories of the Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh have been, are and shall always be part of India. Pakistan is in illegal occupation of Indian territory," she said.

She said when the OIC must have called upon its member Pakistan to give up state-sponsored terrorism and to lift its occupation of Indian territory, it has let the country "hijack and misuse its platform for carrying out its nefarious agenda of engaging in malicious propaganda against India."

Earlier, India had criticised OIC, headquartered in Jeddah, for attempting to interfere in India's internal affairs and stated that it was totally unacceptable.

Taking a blatantly communal, partisan and factually incorrect approach to issues, OIC lost its credibility, a spokesperson of the Indian External Affairs Ministry said.
