India bristles as China hypes Kashmir ‘dispute’

Deccan Chronicle  

New Delhi: India has taken strong exception to China saying that Kashmir “dispute” should be peacefully and properly addressed in accordance with the United Nations Charter, UN Security Council resolutions and the bilateral agreement. In a curt response, India accused China of trying to illegally change the status quo of Pakistan Occupied Kashmir through China Pakistan Economic Corridor. The Indian response came after Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi, while raising the Kashmir issue at the United Nations General Assembly on Friday, said: “Kashmir issue is a dispute left from the past and it should be peacefully and properly addressed in accordance with the UN Charter, Security Council resolutions and bilateral agreement.” The Chinese minister said that no actions should be taken that would unilaterally change the “status quo” of the area. We expect that other countries will respect India’s sovereignty, and desist from efforts to change the status quo through the China Pakistan Economic Corridor in PoK,” said Mr Raveesh Kumar, spokesperson of ministry of external affairs.
