India slams Pakistan at UNSC

New Delhi, Jul 24, 2026 : India has strongly criticised Pakistan at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), accusing it of systematically suppressing the rights of people in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) while repeatedly raising the issue of Jammu and Kashmir at international forums to divert attention from its own record.

Speaking during the UN Security Council Open Debate on Strengthening the Mechanisms for Peaceful Settlement of Disputes, India’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Harish Parvathaneni, said the situation in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir reflects the true nature of the Pakistani state.

He said Pakistan should focus on addressing its internal challenges instead of promoting what he described as a misleading narrative before the international community. His remarks came after Pakistan once again raised the Kashmir issue at the Security Council, prompting a strong response from India.

New Delhi reiterated its longstanding position that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India and maintained that the only unresolved issue is Pakistan’s continued illegal occupation of Indian territory.
