Prime Minister Imran Khan Tuesday said that he has approached United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres and other world leaders to stop India from illegal annexation of Indian-held Kashmir and illegitimate attempts to change demography of the occupied territory. The prime minister on his Twitter account said that issuance of domicile certificates to 25,000 Indian nationals is part of such illegal attempts by India to change demographic structure of the occupied valley which is also a clear violation of the UN Security Council resolutions. All these illegal attempts, he said, are aimed at usurping the legal and internationally guaranteed rights of the Kashmiri people. The prime minister observed that continuation of such illegitimate acts on part of the Indian government seriously endangered peace and security in South Asia. “I have approached UN secretary general and reaching out to other world leaders. India must be stopped from this unacceptable path that further usurps the legal & internationally guaranteed rights of the Kashmiri people & seriously imperils peace and security in South Asia,” he posted on his Twitter account. “First India’s attempt at illegal annexation of IOJK & now its attempts to alter IOJK’s demographic structure incl (including) by issuance of domicile certificates to 25,000 Indian nationals are all illegal, in violation of UNSC resolutions & international law, incl 4th Geneva Convention,” he wrote. Pakistan has categorically rejected the issuance of domicile certificates by the Indian authorities to reportedly 25,000 Indian nationals. The Kashmiris have also rejected these bogus domicile certificates. Earlier, the Foreign Office in its statement said that these certificates issued to non-Kashmiris including the Indian government officials under ‘Jammu and Kashmir Grant of Domicile Certificate (Procedure), 2020’ are illegal, void and a complete violation of the relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions and the international law including the 4th Geneva Convention.
