India converting LoC into quasi border, UN told

UNITED NATIONS: Pakistan has complained to the UN Security Council that India is building a wall along the Line of Control and plans to convert the LoC “into a quasi international border”.

India has dismissed the charge as incorrect and pledged to respond at an “appropriate time”.

Pakistan’s permanent representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Maleeha Lodhi, sent two letters to the UNSC on Sept 4 and 9, sharing Islamabad’s concern over the construction of this wall.

In the Sept 9 letter to president of the Security Council, Russian ambassador Vitaly Churkin, Ambassador Lodhi expressed “deep concern” at the development and said that India planned to construct a 10-metre-high and 135-feet-wide embankment (wall) along the 197km LoC.

Indian officials described the LoC as “the boundary between Pakistan and Jammu and Kashmir”, increasing Islamabad’s fear that New Delhi was quietly trying to change the status of the disputed line.

India also claimed that one of Pakistan’s letters to the UNSC was based on a `submission’ made by Hizb-ul-Mujahideen chief Syed Salahuddin.

Pakistan rejected the Indian claim, saying that the letters it had sent to the UNSC were based on the information it collected from its own sources.

Pakistan “considers the embankment a permanent structure that will bring about a material change in the territory in violation inter alia of ... Security Council resolution ... of 1948”, Ambassador Lodhi wrote.

“The state of Jammu & Kashmir is an internationally recognised disputed territory with a number of United Nations Security Council resolutions on the official status of Jammu & Kashmir awaiting implementation,” she said.

Foreign Secretary Aizaz Chaudhry told a Saturday evening news briefing that Pakistan would not tolerate the wall that India was building on the working boundary.

He said the construction would be a serious violation of UN resolutions that “very clearly state that no entity will build any structure or wall at the LoC or the working boundary”.

“We will raise the issue of the latest Indian aggression at every international forum,” he said.—M. H. and A. I.

Already there was thread on this news why starting another thread. you have to just add the article or the news in that.
 
Can someone explain me how can building a DEFENSIVE wall be a reason for war ???
 
Pakistani rants will be falling to deaf ears again, this "wall" will probably be built.
And if Pakistan is so keen on quoting UNSC resolutions then follow the UNSC resolution 47 before anything else.
 
Simla Agreement is the huge price that Pakistan paid to get back its 90,000 Army troops who surrendered in the fall of East Pakistan.

Agreed. I do not deny that. But when you prick a stronger foe, one should be ready for the hammer back. And time and again it has been proven that Pakistan will not learn. Case in point, Kargil. An independent Kashmir is a strategic nightmare. I fail to understand, why Pakistani strategists do not realise this.

Bhutto was a power hungry freak, we only got the alleged 90,000 POWs back, because of China, we had many other bargaining g chips, Bhutto did everything in his power to get rid of EP so he could become PM
