Pakistan has stated that Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir never was and never will be the so-called ‘integral part’ of India.

Exercising his right of reply in response to a comment of the Indian delegate during the debate on self-determination in the Third Committee of the UN General Assembly, First Secretary Sarfraz Gohar emphasized that the unilateral declarations cannot change historical, political and legal realities. He said India will fail in preventing the ultimate triumph of the Kashmiris' quest for freedom.
