Pakistan ‘completely rejects’ Indian bid to hold G20 meeting in occupied Kashmir

  • Pakistan deplores Indian plans to hold 2023 meetings of the G-20 in IoJK.
  • Foreign Office reiterates that IoJK is a disputed region.
  • FO asks international community to stop India’s human rights violations.

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Saturday completely rejected India’s attempt to hold the G-20 summit in occupied Jammu and Kashmir, reiterating that the region is under New Delhi’s forcible and illegal occupation.

NDTV reported that India is planning to host the 2023 meetings of the G-20 and its Ministry of External Affairs has already issued directives to the authorities in the occupied territory to ensure necessary arrangements.

In a statement, the Foreign Office reminded India that it is well-known that IoJK is an internationally recognised “disputed” territory between Islamabad and New Delhi.

“The territory has been under forcible and illegal occupation of India since 1947 and this dispute has remained on the agenda of the United Nations Security Council for over seven decades,” the statement read.

The Foreign Office said India is responsible for widespread atrocities and egregious human rights violations in IOJK. Since India’s illegal and unilateral actions on August 5, 2019, Indian occupation forces have killed 639 innocent Kashmiris in extra-judicial murders, it noted.

“Numerous reports of the UN, including the two commissioned by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in 2018 and 2019, have re-confirmed ongoing Indian atrocities against the Kashmiri people.”

The Foreign Office stressed that most ominously, India has been seeking to change the demographic structure of the occupied territory in flagrant violation of relevant UN Security Council resolutions, international law, and the 4th Geneva Convention.

Contemplating the holding of any G20-related event in IoJK — in utter disregard of the globally acknowledged “disputed” status of the territory — is a travesty that the international community cannot accept under any circumstances, it said.

“It is expected that in case of any such controversial proposal from India, which would be designed to seek international legitimacy for an illegal and tyrannical occupation continuing for over seven decades, the G20 members will be fully cognizant of the imperatives of law and justice and would reject it out-right.”

The Foreign Office strongly urged the international community to call upon India to end its gross and systematic violations of human rights in IOJK, revoke its illegal and unilateral actions of 5 August 2019, and free all political prisoners including the true Kashmiri leaders.

“The only way to lasting peace in South Asia is by granting the people of the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir their inalienable right to self-determination as pledged to them in the relevant UN Security Council resolutions,” the Foreign Office added.

The actress Aiman Khan has notified her fans and followers that the United Arab Emirates has granted her a Golden Visa.

Renowned for her dramatic roles in plays like “Ghar Titli Ka Par,” “Meri Beti,” and “Ishq Tamasha,” Aiman Khan has been spotted putting more emphasis on her personal life with her spouse, fellow actress Muneeb Butt, and moving away from the entertainment industry recently.

Instagram users saw Aiman Khan post a photo of herself receiving the Golden Visa from UAE officials.

The actress was shown gratitude in the caption for the extraordinary hospitality and kind welcome she received from the Dubai government.

Aiman Khan is shown in the accompanying photo, probably when applying for a visa, looking smart in black among representatives from the United Arab Emirates.

Fascinatingly, Aiman Khan’s spouse, Muneeb Butt, previously uploaded a comparable Instagram picture revealing his triumphant Golden Visa acquisition.

Often taking his wife, Aiman Khan, along, Muneeb Butt travels to Dubai for business and pleasure. Even after their daughter Amal was born, the well-known couple continued to observe this habit.

Furthermore, Miral, their second daughter, made her first vacation outside of Pakistan when they recently took her to Dubai.

“Dubai holds a special place in my heart, from memorable vacations to productive work trips,” Muneeb Butt complimented in the description.
