| OIC Makkah Summit: India says no to envoy for J&K | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, June 6: Narendra Modi Government has again told the international community that it will not allow any foreign power or a group of nations to interfere in the internal affairs of India and Jammu and Kashmir was, is and shall remain its integral part. New Delhi took the stand days after the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, OIC, appointed what it called a "special envoy for J&K".
Rejecting outright the decision, New Delhi said: "The grouping had no locus standi in matters related to the state that is an integral part of the country". "We categorically reject yet another unacceptable reference to matters internal to India in the final communiqué adopted at the conclusion of the 14th Islamic Summit of the OIC member states held at Makkah, Saudi Arabia, on May 31, 2019," said the Indian Foreign Office.
Yousuf Aldobeay of Saudi Arabia, an assistant secretary general of OIC, was among four special envoys appointed at the grouping's summit meeting in Makkah on May 31.
The development came just two months after minister of external affairs Sushma Swaraj represented India for the first time at a meeting of the OIC foreign ministers in Abu Dhabi in March. That time, New Delhi had described the participation of Sushma Swaraj in the meeting as "a significant development in efforts to boost ties with West Asian State".
It needs to be noted that the 14th OIC Summit extended support to the "people of J&K for the realization of their so-called legitimate right to self-determination, in accordance with relevant UN resolutions" and condemned "outbreak of violence in the region".
The stand taken by the Modi Government must have rattled separatists and half-separatists in Kashmir for reasons not really difficult to fathom. |
