Pakistan rejects India8217;s statement

Basit said that by accusing Pakistan,India is 8220;not only insulting the indigenous and legitimate struggle of the people of Jammu and Kashmir,but also betraying its lack of seriousness towards resolving8221; the dispute.

8220;Unless India musters the courage and acknowledges that the soul of self-determination can never be killed,its Kashmir policy will remain rudderless,8221; Basit said.

Pakistan will continue extending diplomatic and moral support to the people of Jammu and Kashmir 8220;until their legitimate aspirations are realised8221;,he said.
