India criticises Pakistan for misusing another forum by continuing its spurious narrative 

India today criticised Pakistan for misusing another forum by continuing its spurious narrative about the country. India said in Right of Reply during virtual CICA Special Ministerial Meeting that Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh have been and will remain integral parts of India. In response to remarks by Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi, India said Pakistan has no locus standi to comment on India's internal affairs. New Delhi said Pakistan's remarks today constitute gross interference in India's internal affairs, sovereignty, and territorial integrity which is inconsistent with the CICA Declaration on the Principles Guiding Relations between the CICA Member States of September 1999.
