New Delhi, March 2
India today said the Organisation of Islamic Countries (OIC) was misled by Pakistan during its submissions at the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC). Exercising its right of reply to the statements made by Pakistan and the OIC, Indian diplomat Pawankumar Badhe rejected the reference to the UT of J&K in the OIC statement. The 57-member organisation, he said, had no locus standi to comment on matters related to J&K, which was an integral and inalienable part of India.

NEW DELHI:
Pension to Designated Terrorists Terrorists: India on Tuesday exposed Pakistan for hosting the largest number of terrorists proscribed by the United Nations and providing them pensions out of State funds.
The First Secretary of Permanent Mission of India to the UN , Pawan Kumar Badhe said this in India s right of reply to statements made by Pakistan and the OIC under oral update by the High Commissioner of Human Rights at UNHRC.
Pakistan s deliberate misuse of this august forum for its malicious propaganda against India, aimed at diverting the attention of the Council from its own serious violations of human rights, has remained a constant, said Badhe.
