Islamabad, September 29: India on slammed Pakistan for sponsoring militancy and terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir and said Islamabad should not impart lessons to it on democracy and human rights.
Hitting back at Pakistan a day after its Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi harped on giving the Kashmiri people the right to “self-determination through plebiscite”, External Affairs Minister S M Krishna said Islamabad must stop its state-sponsored militancy and terrorism in the state.
“Jammu & Kashmir, which is an integral part of India, is the target of Pakistan-sponsored militancy and terrorism.
Pakistan must fulfill its solemn commitment of not allowing territory under its control to be used for terrorism directed against India,” he said in his firmly worded speech at the 65th UN General Assembly session here.
