The government on Sunday categorically rejected what it described as factually incorrect, gratuitous and unwarranted references to India in resolutions adopted by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on recent developments in Jammu and Kashmir.
India also accused the OIC, which describes itself as the collective voice of the Muslim world, of indulging in anti-India propaganda at the behest of Pakistan.
In a resolution adopted unanimously by the 57-member body at the 47th Council of Foreign Ministers session in Niamey, the OIC was reported to have categorically rejected India’s “unilateral and illegal” actions in withdrawing the special status of J&K and called upon India to rescind these.
The MEA said in a statement, India had always maintained that OIC had no locus standi in matters strictly internal to India, including that of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, which, it said, was an integral and inalienable part of India.
