New Delhi: India on Friday unequivocally rejected the decisions adopted by the Cabinet of Pakistan on the situation in Jammu and Kashmir.
The Ministry of External Affairs issued a statement saying Pakistan has no locus standi in the matter and asked it to refrain from interfering in it.
"Continued glorification of terrorists belonging to proscribed terrorist organizations makes it amply clear where Pakistan’s sympathies continue to lie," the statement said.
The reaction comes after Pakistan Defence Minister Khawaja M Asif blamed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for Kashmir unrest. He said, "Massacre and genocide in Indian occupied Kashmir is an extension and re-enactment of ethnic cleansing started by Modi in Gujarat."
A special cabinet meeting was chaired by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Friday to declare July 19 as 'black day' to mark complete solidarity with Kashmiris.
Sharif expressed shock over the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani in an encounter in Kashmir and deplored "oppressive measures" and "excessive" force used against civilians in the latest wave of violence in the Valley.
