India should adhere to accepted human rights standards: foreign office

A Foreign Office spokesman here on Saturday said Jammu and Kashmir issue is an international dispute and subject of several UN Security Council resolutions and India should not be dismissive of uprising in Kashmir. Reacting to the Indian response to the Foreign Minister's statement on the situation in Indian Occupied Kashmir.
The spokesman said the response is evidently self-serving and, to say the least, callous to be dismissive of the widespread uprising of the Kashmiri people including youth and women against Indian occupation. Instead of stereotypically blaming Pakistan, India should undertake serious introspection of its policies that are in sharp variance to its international commitments including adherence to accepted human rights standards, he added.
