Pakistan building diplomatic pressure on India to resolve Kashmir dispute: Maleeha

NEW YORK: Pakistan is working hard to turn up diplomatic pressure on India to move towards resolving the Kashmir dispute based on United Nations Security Council resolutions that call for an internationally-supervised plebiscite for Kashmiris to decide their future, Ambassador Maleeha Lodhi has said.

“To that end, we have raised and continue to raise this decades-old dispute at all forums of the United Nations,” she told a largely-attended meeting held at the Pakistan House to mark the anniversary of India’s massive invasion and occupation of Kashmir on October 27, 1947, known as “Black Day”.
