Pakistan strongly condemns and rejects the announcements made today by the Indian Government regarding the Indian Occupied Jammu & Kashmir," said a Pakistan foreign office statement on Monday.
"The Indian Occupied Jammu & Kashmir is an internationally recognized disputed territory. No unilateral step by the Government of India can change this disputed status, as enshrined in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions. Nor will this ever be acceptable to the people of Jammu & Kashmir and Pakistan.
"As the party to this international dispute, Pakistan will exercise all possible options to counter the illegal steps."
When Pakistan can unilaterally cede part of a disputed territory to a third country (Trans-karakoram Tract).
India is well within our rights to change the local legislative status of a territory that we administer. There is nothing illegal internationally unless and until the territorial integrity of the territory is maintained as per the dispute.
Now don't tell me its otherwise without any supporting facts.
