The participants applauded the resilience of the Kashmiri people and strongly condemned the blatant violations of UN Charter as well as international human rights and humanitarian laws in IOJ&K especially during the last six months.

The committee highlighted that Jammu and Kashmir dispute is the main pillar of Pakistan’s foreign policy. Parliament and state institutions attach supreme importance to Jammu and Kashmir dispute and Pakistan would continue to extend political, moral and diplomatic support to the Kashmiri people in their just struggle for the right to self-determination.
