Pakistan Ambassador to China, Masood Khalid has said that instead of stopping state violence in the Indian occupied Kashmir  and recognizing the right to self-determination of the Kashmiri people, India is playing a blame game in order to side-step the real issue and divert the attention of the international community.

Speaking at an event in connection with Kashmir Solidarity Day organized by the Embassy of Pakistan at Pakistan Embassy College Beijing, he said that despite all measures to subjugate them, the spirit of the people of Kashmir remained free and alive.

Ambassador Khalid highlighted the significance of the event and apprised the participants of the continuously deteriorating situation in IOK.
