India tells Pak to end its illegal occupation of J-K

New York, Sept 23 (PTI) Stating that Jammu and Kashmir
is an internal matter of India, External Affairs Minister S M
Krishna has asked Pakistan to end its illegal occupation of
some parts of the state before advising New Delhi.
"Kashmir is an internal matter of India," said
Krishna, who is here on a 10-day visit to attend the annual UN
General Assembly meeting.
Pointing out that Pakistan is in "illegal occupation
of some parts of Jammu and Kashmir", Krishna said, "it is
desirable that they vacate that and then start advising India
as to how to go about doing things in Kashmir."
"We have taken certain actions in terms of assisting
what needs to be done in Kashmir... An all party delegation
has just gone back to Delhi and they have had wide ranging
discussions across the board from all shades of opinion.
"So, Government of India is fully conscious of its
responsibilities... institutional mechanism and individual
mechanism will be put in place so that the genuine grievances
of Kashmir and the people of Kashmir will be addressed
squarely and directly," the External Affairs Minister told
