India rejects OIC resolution on Kashmir

India has rejected the resolution passed by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on Jammu and Kashmir and termed it as ‘factually incorrect and misleading’. “We note with regret that the Organization of the Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has once again made factually incorrect and misleading references to matters internal to India, including the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir, which is an integral part of India. We reject all such references and resolutions,” official spokesperson of the Indian Ministry of External Affairs said. The OIC, in its 39th session of the Council of Foreign Ministers, noted ‘with regret the Indian attempt to malign the legitimate Kashmiri freedom struggle by denigrating it as terrorism’ and appreciated that the Kashmiri’s condemn terrorism in all its forms and manifestations’. It also took note of the report which confirmed that there are 2156 unidentified bodies in mass graves in Kashmir and expressed concern that there is every possibility that the unidentified bodies buried in various places may include the bodies of those who were believed to have disappeared. OIC Secretary General Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu reaffirmed the organisation’s support for the people of Jammu and Kashmir in their struggle to achieve their legitimate rights and stressed on considering new means for supporting them.
