Srinagar
In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, political analysts and experts on Kashmir have said that Jammu and Kashmir is a UN-mandated disputed territory and Modi regime’s unilateral and illegal actions of 5th August 2019 cannot change this status of the region.
Talking to Kashmir Media Service over phone from Srinagar on the condition of anonymity to avoid reprisal from the Indian occupation authorities, they said the disputed nature of Kashmir is an established fact and there is no ambiguity about it. They said that India itself had taken the Kashmir dispute to the UN Security Council and subsequently the World Body had passed successive resolutions, calling for its settlement through holding of plebiscite in Jammu and Kashmir.
“India’s hegemonic mindset is stopping it from accepting that Jammu and Kashmir is a disputed territory. New Delhi’s August 05, 2019 moves can’t change the fact that J&K is a disputed territory,” they said.—KMS
