You are either a terrible political observer or you doing it on purpose.
First of all, Erdogan constantly used the term "Kashmir" instead of "Jammu & Kashmir" which is seen as a provocative and pro-Pakistan approach by many Hindu nationalists.
Secondly, India has maintained several times that no third-party has the right to intervene or to mediate between Pakistan and India. But Erdogan insisted that a multilateral approach is the key for a peaceful and sustainable solution. He basically disagreed with a core position of India regarding the Kashmir Conflict during his visit in India.

Turkey sees role in Kashmir talks

Urging an end to casualties in the Valley, Erdogan offered to help find a resolution
Setting the stage for intense diplomacy, Turkey has urged for multilateral dialogue to solve the Kashmir issue between India and Pakistan. In comments made to an Indian TV channel, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan called for an end to the casualties in the Valley and said Turkey is willing to be involved in finding a lasting solution to the question of Kashmir.
“We should not allow more casualties to occur and by strengthening multilateral dialogue, we can be involved, and through multilateral dialogue, I think we have to seek out ways to settle this question once and for all, which will benefit both countries,” President Erdogan was quoted as saying in an interview to news channel WION, according to a press release issued by the channel.
The comments are likely to add to the atmospherics on Monday when President Erdogan will hold talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other leaders in the capital.
MEA response
The Ministry of External Affairs on Thursday noted Turkey’s position on Kashmir and Pakistan, and said Turkey-India ties stand “on their own footing”. “Our position on the State of Jammu and Kashmir is very well known and ... the entire State of Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of the territory of India,” said Secretary (West) Ruchi Ghanshyam.
As per the Simla Pact of 1972, India has a sought resolution of the Kashmir issue through bilateral means and avoided any third party intervention. However, Mr Erdogan’s statement on Kashmir is in line with the Pakistan-Turkey Joint Statement issued during his November 16-17, 2016 visit to Islamabad when he expressed support for UN resolutions regarding Kashmir.
India has maintained that the UN has no role to play this matter and has withdrawn support to the UNMOGIP (UN Military Observer Group in India and Pakistan).
Pak. entry in NSG
President Erdogan also indicated that Ankara wishes to pursue a hyphenated policy as far as India’s multilateral campaigns are concerned. Though his visit was viewed as an indication of Turkey’s willingness to support India’s entry into the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG), his comments tied up New Delhi’s bid for NSG with that of Pakistan.
“Both India and Pakistan have the right to aspire NSG membership. I think India should not assume such an attitude. If Turkey was fair enough to support Pakistan, it was fair enough to support India. We are very objective and positive to the NSG process,” he was quoted as saying by the TV channel.
The statement is particularly significant as it followed hours after India expressed strong support for sovereignty and territorial integrity of Cyprus which has decades-old territorial dispute with Turkey.
“We understand that the two sides in Cyprus have been talking to each other. India hopes that a just and lasting solution will be found to the Cyprus problem in accordance with the UNSC resolutions. We support a peaceful between the concerned parties,” Mr. Baglay had said on Thursday.
Welcoming President Nicos Anastasiades of Cyprus on April 28, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had reiterated India’s historic support to maintain territorial integrity of Cyprus when it faced Turkish invasion in 1974.
In his statement, Mr. Modi had said at the Hyderabad House on Friday, “India has always stood by Cyprus on all crucial issues. In 1974, India took a firm stand in support of the sovereignty, unity and integrity of the Republic of Cyprus.”
The Hindu had earlier reported that President Anastasiades had also sought India’s involvement in solving the dispute with Turkey.

Ready to resolve all bilateral issues with Pakistan including Kashmir: India tells Turkey
The spokesperson was asked about Erdogan's suggestion of multilateral dialogue to resolve the issue.
India on Monday categorically told Turkey that it is ready to resolve all bilateral issues with Pakistan including Kashmir, which it said is essentially due to cross-border terrorism.
India’s clear message came amid suggestion from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for a multilateral dialogue to resolve the Kashmir issue.
India categorically conveyed to Turkey its position that Kashmir was essentially a terrorism issue, Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Gopal Baglay said.
He also said India told Turkey it is ready to resolve all bilateral issues with Pakistan, including Kashmir.
The spokesperson was asked about Erdogan’s suggestion of multilateral dialogue to resolve the issue.
In an interview to a TV channel, Erdogan had said, “We should not allow more casualties to occur (in Kashmir). By having a multilateral dialogue, (in which) we can be involved, we can seek ways to settle the issue once and for all.”
The remarks are contrary to the position of India, which maintains that the Jammu and Kashmir issue is a bilateral matter between it and Pakistan, and that there is no scope for a third party mediation.
