India rejects OIC’s Kashmir remarks NEW DELHI: Govt categorically rejected in a statement the “unwarranted and factually incorrect” references to India in the joint communique of the so-called OIC Contact Group on J&K, saying the grouping has “no locus standi to pronounce on matters that are strictly internal” to India.“The entire UTs of J&K and Ladakh are an integral and inalienable part of India, and no amount of repetition of politically motivated propaganda can change this reality. Repeated endorsement of such motivated narratives only raises serious questions on the credibility of OIC,” the ministry of external affairs said.

It also accused the grouping, which claims to be the collective voice of the Muslin world, of offering a platform to Pakistan to peddle its “fabricated and motivated propaganda”.“OIC will be better advised to counsel Pakistan, which has a well documented record of supporting and sponsoring terrorism, to look inwards and address the continuing threat of terrorism emanating from territories under its control,” it said.Meeting on the margins of UNGA, OIC Contact Group had reaffirmed its commitment to supporting the “inalienable right of the Kashmiri people to self-determination as the foundation for a just and lasting peace in South Asia, in accordance with Security Council resolutions and the principles of international law”.
