August 22, 2020

In response to a media query on the Joint Press Release of the China-Pakistan Foreign Ministers’ strategic dialogue, the Official Spokesperson Shri Anurag Srivastava said:

As in the past, we categorically reject the reference to the Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir in the Joint Press Release of the 2nd Round of China-Pakistan Foreign Ministers' Strategic Dialogue. The Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir is an integral and inalienable part of India and we expect the parties concerned to not to interfere in matters that are internal affairs of India.

At the same time we also reiterate our consistent position on the so-called "China Pakistan Economic Corridor". India has repeatedly conveyed its concerns to both China and to Pakistan on the projects in so called China Pakistan Economic Corridor, which are in the territory of India that has been illegally occupied by Pakistan. We resolutely oppose actions by other countries that change the status quo in Pakistan occupied Jammu and Kashmir and call on the parties concerned to cease such actions.
