Earlier, Lodhi had tweeted that Pakistan will continue to support the “heroic struggle of our Kashmiri brothers and sisters.” Lodhi repeated her stance that a “peaceful settlement” of the Kashmir issue in accordance with relevant UN Security Council resolutions is a “pre-requisite for lasting peace and stability” in South Asia.
Pakistan constantly raises the Kashmir issue at the UN seeking the world body’s intervention in the dispute with India. But New Delhi has always maintained that Kashmir is a bilateral issue with Islamabad.
Last week, Indian security forces undertook three counter-insurgency operations in Jammu and Kashmir in which 13 militants were killed, including those responsible for the brutal killing of Lieutenant Umar Fayaz.
