In October, Pakistan’s ambassador to the UN, Maleeha Lodhi, reiterated the call on the United Nations (UN) to establish a Commission of inquiry to investigate the grave human rights violations in occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

The report issued on Kashmir by the UN High Commissioner of Human Rights in June 2018 had made a recommendation for such an inquiry.

“We endorse the report’s recommendation that a UN Inquiry Commission be constituted to investigate and redress the violations of human rights of the Kashmiri people”, the Pakistani envoy said.

Ambassador Lodhi said at the UN forum that the aspirations of the Kashmiri people to exercise their right to self-determination would have been fulfilled decades ago, had India not brutally suppressed their legitimate struggle.
