Pakistan rakes up J&K during UNGA session on Ukraine; India hits back

Yet again, India slammed Pakistan after it referred to Jammu and Kashmir during a special session on Ukraine in the UN General Assembly.

Terming the provocation as “regrettable and misplaced”, Counsellor in India’s Permanent Mission to the UN Pratik Mathur called out Islamabad’s track record of harbouring and providing safe havens to terrorists with impunity.

“I'm taking the floor today to say that India chooses this time not to respond to Pakistan's mischievious provocations. Our advice to the delegate of Pakistan is to refer to our numerous Rights of Reply that we have exercised in the past,” Counsellor in India’s Permanent Mission to the UN Pratik Mathur said.

Mathur exercised India’s Right of Reply on Thursday after Pakistan’s envoy at the UN Munir Akram referred to Jammu and Kashmir while delivering the explanation of vote on the UN General Assembly resolution on Ukraine during the Emergency Special Session.
