Resolution of the Kashmir dispute is essential for “sustainable peace” in South Asia, Aizaz Khan, the Chargé d’affaires of the High Commission of Pakistan, said in New Delhi on Monday.
Leading the celebration for the Pakistan Independence Day at the diplomatic mission, Mr. Khan said Pakistan could attain its goals if it remained united as a nation and worked for social justice and economic progress.
“Mr. Aizaz Khan said that Pakistan is a proponent of peace in the world and the region, and seeks peaceful relations with all neighbouring countries including India. However, for sustainable peace in South Asia, it is imperative to resolve the core issue of Kashmir as per relevant resolutions of the United Nations and the aspirations of the Kashmiri people,” the Pakistan High Commission said in a press release.
