India has rejected United Nations Human Rights Council’s request for a visit to occupied Kashmir to investigate human rights violations in the region, mentioned a Times of India reported.

According to the report, Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj said that the Indian government had received a letter from the UNHRC, requesting a visit to the Indian-held Kashmir.

The foreign minister had raised the matter in an all-party conference called on Friday to discuss the prevailing violence in the region.

It was reported that all the parties unanimously rejected any third-party arbitration in the matter.

A few days ago, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had written letters to the UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Prince Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein, urging them to make efforts to end the persistent and egregious violations of the basic human rights in Indian-occupied Kashmir (IoK), the Pakistani foreign ministry had said in a statement.

Indian authorities had suspended all mobile telephone services except postpaid connections of state-run BSNL, citing possible protests after Friday prayers.

Since July, dozens of Kashmiri youth have lost their eyesight after Indian forces resorted to using pellet guns on unarmed civilians.

Doctors at the Shri Maharaja Hari Singh hospital have treated over 360 pellet victims since Wani was martyred and have performed over 400 eye surgeries.

Devastated by the atrocities, the doctors had also earlier protested at the Government Medical College Srinagar holding up placards reading “Hear our silence, see our blindness” and “Stop killing innocent kids”.

India rejects UNHRC request to visit Kashmir to probe alleged human rights violations by forces

What about this one? Well, a bit of searching and googling would make to easy to verify the news through different sources. I am sure that you haven't gone through the contents of the news that in the end of very first line, it says Times of India.

Even reported in another Source/News.

Rather doing some home work, you came with nothing but trolling.

Since Pak loves UNHRC so much, this is a great opportunity for Pak to invite them to Balochistan, P-o-K and show them nothing is wrong :lol:
That is a very good idea and we should allow them in Balochistan and Azad Kashmir, BUT UNHRC in I-O-K hahahaha :lol::lol::lol: will be like taking the police to the scene of the crime yourself.

India is set to reject a UN request to send a team of investigators to Jammu and Kashmir following a recent uptick in unrest which is the worst in the region since 2010.

Kashmir has witnessed violent protests since the July 8 killing of a pro-independence leader, with 54 people killed and several thousand wounded in clashes with Indian security forces.

The UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) has asked the Indian government to allow investigators into the restive region to examine allegations of human rights violations during a heavy-handed crackdown.

But New Delhi has prepared a "carefully-worded response, noting that a visit by a UN Human Rights Council team is not required," The Times of India reported on Monday.

The letter has touched on "several measures the Indian government has taken to restore normalcy" in Kashmir and accused Pakistan of "overt role in aggravating the situation," the paper said.

There are an estimated 500,000 Indian troops currently deployed in the restive territory. The country has imposed a curfew across large parts of the territory since July.

On Monday, armed militants attacked police paramilitaries in Kashmir's summer capital of Srinagar, wounding 10 people. Police said three of them were in serious condition.

The attacks came as Prime Minister Narendra Modi delivered his annual Independence Day speech in New Delhi.

Police said operations were continuing against the attackers, who were holed up in a building near a police station.

The Indian army also said it had foiled an attempt by two militants to infiltrate into India from Pakistan, killing both at the de facto border between the two countries.

Modi met with leaders of different parties on Friday to discuss the recent escalation of the crisis in Kashmir but they failed to agree on sending an all-party delegation to the region for talks to calm tensions there.

In his speech on Monday, Modi did not mention Kashmir while he accused Pakistanis of celebrating attacks on India.

India and Pakistan both claim Kashmir in full. New Delhi controls two-thirds of Kashmir, while the remaining one-third is under Islamabad's rule. The two nuclear rivals have fought two wars over the disputed territory.

India accuses Pakistan of providing pro-independence militants with arms and sending them across the borderline to launch attacks on Indian forces.

On Friday, the Indian government expanded the curfew to block a rally planned by pro-independence activists who went ahead with the protest in Srinagar anyway after Friday prayers. Indian troops detained several of the demonstrators.

The timer is ticking down on Kashmir issue and soon it will be resolved according to Indian interests. The days of Randi rona are over and world realizes the nature of Jihadi mindset.
