India gave a befitting reply to Pakistan at the 42nd session of the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) at Geneva and exposed the lies and falsehood used by Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi to rake up the Jammu and Kashmir issue at UNHRC. Speaking at UNHRC session, India's Vijay Thakur Singh, Secretary (East),took no time to shred Pakistan's arguments into pieces and told the global community that Pakistan gave a running commentary with 'offensive rhetoric of false allegations and concocted charges against India.'

"One delegation has given a running commentary with offensive rhetoric of false allegations and concocted charges against my country. The world is aware that this fabricated narrative comes from the epic entre of global terrorism, where ring leaders were sheltered for years.This nation conducts cross-border terrorism as a form of ‘alternate diplomacy’.My delegation will separately exercise the right to respond," Singh said.

Referring to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's decision to abrogate Article 370, Singh said that the recent legislative measures taken byIndia was within the framework of its Constitution and it is an internal matter of India. She added that the abrogation of Article 370 will ensure that progressive measures are fully applicable to our citizens in Jammu &Kashmir and Ladakh. "As a result, there will be an end to gender discrimination, including on property rights and local bodies representation. There will be better protection of juvenile rights and laws against domestic violence. The rights to education, information and work will now be applicable," she said.
