Shawl said that the world needs to understand the undemocratic practices of India in the state of Jammu and Kashmir where even the right to life in addition to other fundamental freedoms is critically jeopardized.

The claims of Indian Foreign Minister Salman Khurseed and Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde that Kashmir was its integral part are contrary to the documented international agreements and records of United Nations. Kashmir is a mandated disputed territory where United Nations resolutions have not be fully implemented so far. It is very important that India gives up its rigidity; ostrich like approach and aggress to an inclusive tripartite dialogue on Kashmir.
