| 2006-03-16 |
| Pakistan on Wednesday rejected India's claim that Gilgit-Baltistan area in the Northern Areas is an integral part of India. Pakistan's Foreign Office spokeswoman responding to a question drew India's attention to UN Security Council and the UN Commission for India and Pakistan's resolutions regarding the status of Jammu and Kashmir. She said the valley is a disputed territory whose final status is yet to be determined. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs spokesman on March 10 claimed that Gilgit-Baltistan "is an integral part of India". |
