Foreign Minister Qureshi said Pakistan had exposed the ongoing human rights violations in the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) at every international forum.

He mentioned that India tried to change the demographic ratio in the IIOJK by amending the domicile laws, terming it a "clear violation of international law".

He said all the political parties of Pakistan were united on the Kashmir issue.

Qureshi said following the footsteps of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the Bharatiya Janta Party government because of its Hindutva thinking had sowed the seeds of hatred in the hearts of Kashmiris and minorities living in India.
