India has asserted that entire territory of Jammu and Kashmir is and will always be an integral part of the country. In a befitting response to Pakistan after it raked up the Kashmir issue during the UN General Assembly debate on Russia, India’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ruchira Kamboj said, it has been witnessed yet again an attempt by one delegation to misuse this forum and make frivolous and pointless remarks against India. She said such a statement deserves collective contempt from a mindset which repeatedly utters falsehoods. She called on Pakistan to stop cross-border terrorism so that citizens can enjoy their right to life and liberty.
After abstaining on the UNGA resolution condemning Russia, India expressed deep concern at the escalation of the conflict in Ukraine including targeting of civilian infrastructure and deaths of civilians. Ambassador Kamboj said New Delhi has consistently advocated that no solution can be reached at human cost and escalation of hostilities is in no one’s interest. She also urged that all efforts should be made for an immediate cessation of hostilities and an urgent return to the path of dialogue and diplomacy.
