Pakistan rejected the findings of the ‘delimitation panel’ for the IIOJK.

Pakistan has flatly rejected the recommendation of the so-called “delimitation panel” for Indian-controlled Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).

According to a press release from the Foreign Office, the Indian Charge d’Affaires was summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Thursday and handed over a demarche conveying Pakistan’s categorical rejection of the report of the so-called ‘Delimitation Commission,’ which was aimed at disenfranchising and disempowering the Muslim majority population of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).

This entire process was described as “farcical” and had previously been rejected by a cross-section of political groups in IIOJK, according to the Indian side. India’s goal with this attempt was to give ‘legitimacy’ to its illegal conduct.

It was stressed that the Indian government’s ulterior aim could be seen in the fact that, under the guise of “delimitation,” Muslim representation in re-designated seats had been decreased to their disadvantage.

“This demolished the Indian government’s argument that the ‘delimitation endeavor’ was intended to ‘empower’ the local population. The revised election boundaries, on the other hand, would further disempower, isolate, and divide the inhabitants of the occupied territories. It would only pave the way for the installation of another BJP-RSS puppet dictatorship “the declaration said.

The Jammu and Kashmir dispute was emphasized to the Indian Cd’A as a globally recognized conflict and a long-standing item on the UN Security Council’s agenda.

Any illegal, unilateral, and devious attempt by India to give the Hindu population disproportionately higher electoral representation at the expense of the Muslim population, according to the FO statement, is a mockery of all democratic norms, morality, and India’s obligations under UN Security Council Resolutions and international law.

It was also emphasized that the Indian government must refrain from making any illegal demographic changes in the occupied territory, end its oppression in the IIOJK immediately, and allow the Kashmiri people to decide their own future through a free and fair plebiscite under UN auspices, as stipulated in relevant UN Security Council resolutions.
