21 July, New Delhi

India has strongly condemned the encouragement and support which terrorists receive from Pakistan and demanded that Islamabad must fulfil the obligation to vacate its illegal occupation of Pak Occupied Kashmir.

Responding to queries on recent rallies and events in Pakistan related to Jammu and Kashmir, External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Vikas Swarup said, the events were led by UN-designated terrorists who had protested the elimination of dreaded terrorists including Osama bin Laden in the past.

Swarup said, observance of Kashmir’s Accession to Pakistan Day exposes Pakistan’s longing for the territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

He said Pakistan must stop misleading the international community and Kashmiris through meaningless exercises such as the so-called elections today in Pak Occupied Kashmir.

The spokesperson said, India has also asked Pakistan to ensure full safety and security of the Indian High Commission in Islamabad, all its officials and their families in view of the threats of marches and protests.
