This right has been promised to the people of Kashmir by the United Nation (UN) Security Council, Sartaj Aziz said in a statement issued by the Foreign Office.
India’s External Affairs Minister Sushma Sawaraj today categorically warned Pakistan saying its dream of getting Kashmir will not be fulfilled till “Qayamat”, the day of resurrection.
Ms Swaraj’s attack was targeted directly at Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif who told a rally last day in Pakistan Administrated Kashmir that the Kashmir would soon become part of Pakistan.
He said Kashmir was not entire Jammu and Kashmir, it is merely 15 per cent area of the state which is under Indian jurisdiction and constitutes about 45 percent of the state’s population.
She had said that for India Burhan was a wanted terrorist.
Swaraj also slammed Pakistan for portraying Burhan Wani as a marty and asked whether it doesn’t know that he is a terrorist.
Aziz assured the people of Kashmir that the government and the people of Pakistan remain firmly committed in their moral, diplomatic and political support to the Kashmiris’ indigenous movement for self-determination and resolution of the Kashmir dispute in accordance with the relevant UN Security Council Resolutions on Kashmir. Pakistan’s dirty money, unsafe terrorists and duplicitous state institutions seek to destabilize the region.
Swaraj’s comments follow remarks by home minister Rajnath Singh in Parliament on Thursday where he accused Pakistan of destabilising India. The statement from none other than the Pakistan prime minister has betrayed this despicable design. Since then, most parts of the Indian-controlled portion of Kashmir have been under security lockdown. He appealed to the United Nations, and other global human rights organisations to take notice of the situation in the region.
Wani, a 22-year-old commander of Kashmir’s largest pro-independence militant group Hizbul Mujahideen (HM), was killed along with two other separatists during a brief gun battle with Indian government forces.

Indian security forces in Kashmir exercise restraint and this was clear from “the unusually high number of the injured personnel-more than 1700-in the violence unleashed with the support from across the border in Jammu and Kashmir”, she said. But I would like to repeat that this dream of Pakistan will never be fulfilled.
