India on Friday took on Pakistan for making a reference to Jammu and Kashmir at the United Nations, reminding it that being a part of the global body is a matter of huge responsibility.
India's permanent representative to UN Parvathaneni Harish said on Friday that he was compelled to respond to Pakistan due to the country's “unwarranted reference to a matter strictly internal to India”.
“Abuse of its presence on the Security Council by Pakistan, including through the circulation of several misinformed and misleading communications also testifies to this counter-productive approach. I would like to remind Pakistan that being a member of the UN Security Council is a huge responsibility. It is not a forum for peddling biased and false narratives,” he added.
Harish's retort came after Pakistan's permanent representative to the UN Asim Iftikhar Ahmad raised the issue of Jammu and Kashmir during his remarks on Friday at the UN General Assembly on the 'Annual Report of the Security Council'.
