Islamabad, August 23, 2022 (PPI-OT):Pakistan has reiterated its grave concerns about India’s illegal demographic engineering of the illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir and its widely documented grave human rights impacts during the last three years. Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN offices in Geneva, Khalil Hashmi met the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Michelle Bachelet, and briefed her about the unfolding human rights crisis in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

Terming the Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir as a human rights flashpoint, the Pakistani envoy drew the High Commissioner’s attention towards India’s unabated, gross violations of Kashmiri people’s basic political, civil, economic, social and cultural rights, especially their inalienable right to self-determination. He regretted that there is a clear pattern of Indian impunity for human rights abuses, aided by conspicuous silence of powerful states.
