Moreover, Imran Khan also addressed the issue of Kashmir by taking note of atrocities committed by Indian forces in the Indian Illegally Occupied Kashmir (IIOJK). He urged the government of India to end the military siege in Kashmir and discuss the issue bilaterally.
According to a report by Hindustan Times, Mijito Vinito who is an Indian diplomat serving since 2010, left the UNGA as soon as the speech of Imran Khan was played overhead.
TS Tirumurti is a permanent representative of India to the UN who has tweeted to use the ‘Right to Reply’ facility to respond to the statement of Imran Khan. He regarded Imran Khan’s statement as a vicious falsehood and personal attack.
