NEW YORK: Pakistan has strongly protested against the reported move of India to raise a wall on the Line of Control (LoC) between the two nations.
Protesting against India’s move, reported Dunya News, Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to United Nations (UN) Maleeha Lodhi on Thursday filed two correspondences in the UN, expressing severe reservations over India raising a wall on the LoC — a temporary ceasefire line along Jammu and Kashmir.
The wall is likely to be at least 197-km-long, 10-meter-high and 135-foot-wide.
Reiterating her country’s stance, Lodhi made it clear that “the only acceptable solution of the Kashmir conflict to Pakistan is through the UN resolutions and a plebiscite by Kashmiris”.
Quoting the UN resolutions, she said, “No party can alter the current territorial position and despite the resolution barring the move, India is going ahead with the plan to build a massive and illegal wall.”
Lodhi reportedly told Dunya News that tension in the region has risen in the past few months, while India has violated the ceasefire in multiple events of heavy firing.
She said United Nations’ Security Council president has been informed in writing on the violations from the Indian side.

India Says Pakistan's Letter to UN 'contradictory'
NEW YORK: Reacting to the allegations made by Pakistan that India was raising a 197-km-long, 10-meter-high and 135-foot-wide wall on the Line of Control (LoC), Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Vikas Swarup said that India was aware of the two letters written by Pakistan to the United Nations.
“The first letter was written on September 4, which states that there was no bilateral dialogue. After that the BSF and Pak Rangers have already met. So the letter has itself contradicted itself that there is no dialogue as there has been a dialogue,” said Swarup in response to a question by ANI's Smita Prakash.
He added, “As far as the second letter is concerned, I believe, it is based on some kind of submission made by Mr. Salahuddin, whom we consider to be a global terrorist. We will respond at appropriate time."
He said there was no fresh letter from Pakistan to the UN.
On a question that Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif will be raising the issue in his address to the UN, Swarup said, “The first thing is, has any action been taken by the United Nations? If there is an action taken by the UN, we will respond appropriately, and if no action is taken by the UN, it itself tells that nobody has taken the cognisance.”
