In a recent Eid al-Adha message, Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif reiterated support for the people of Jammu and Kashmir, framing it within a broader context of solidarity with oppressed communities, including those in Palestine. This statement follows a joint declaration made during Sharif's visit to China, which characterized the Jammu and Kashmir dispute as a historical issue that should be resolved according to the United Nations (UN) Charter and relevant resolutions. The joint statement sparked a strong reaction from India, with the Ministry of External Affairs categorically rejecting the references to Jammu and Kashmir, asserting that it is an integral part of India. Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal emphasized that no other nation has the right to comment on this matter, reaffirming India's longstanding position regarding the territorial integrity of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh.
