India lodges protest with Pak deputy envoy over so-called Gilgit-Baltistan order

[INDIAPOSITIVE]

NEW DELHI: India on Sunday summoned Pakistan's deputy high commissioner Syed Haider Shah over Islamabad's so-called Gilgit-Baltistan order, and told him that any action to alter the status of any part of the territory under his country's forcible occupation has no legal basis.

In a statement, the ministry of external affairs said it conveyed to Shah that the entire state of Jammu and Kashmir, which also includes the so-called 'Gilgit-Baltistan' areas, is an integral part of India by virtue of its accession in 1947.

Through its order on Gilgit-Baltistan on May 21, Pakistan Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi has seized more authority from the local council to deal with the affairs of the region.

Civil rights groups in Pakistan have criticised the order.

Any action to alter the status of any part of the territory under forcible and illegal occupation of Pakistan has no legal basis whatsoever, and is completely unacceptable. Instead of seeking to alter the status of the occupied territories, Pakistan should immediately vacate all areas under its illegal occupation," the MEA said.

The ministry said it was also conveyed to the Pakistani deputy envoy that such actions can neither hide the illegal occupation of a part of Jammu and Kashmir by Pakistan nor the grave human rights violations, exploitation and denial of freedom to the people residing in Pakistan-occupied territories.

Not leaving it undefended does not equate to not holding a plebiscite.

The world is mistreating Indian people by treating India as a country. With all the rape epidemic and religious abuse, the quicker it disintegrated, the better for the world.

The whole of India is orders smaller than sum of all of its parts.
