Rejecting Pakistan’s baseless remarks on Jammu and Kashmir, Chaudhary reaffirmed that the Union Territory is an integral and inalienable part of India. He criticised Pakistan’s habitual misuse of UN platforms to advance narrow political ends while rigging elections, jailing popular leaders, bombing its own population, and brutally suppressing popular protests. He reminded the global community that even Pakistan’s own Army Chief has described the country as a “dump truck,” exposing the rot within its governance.
Chaudhary underlined that India’s Constitution, inspired by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, provides a rights-based framework ensuring every citizen can reach their full potential. (ANI)
