New Delhi: The Centre on Saturday firmly opposed the recent visit by the British envoy to Islamabad to Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (POK).
The UK High Commissioner to Pakistan, Jane Marriott, had visited Mirpur on January 10. She had also shared pictures from the trip on X and wrote: “70% of British Pakistani roots are from Mirpur, making our work together crucial for diaspora interests.”
The Ministry of External Affairs said that it has “taken a serious note” of Marriott’s visit and termed it as “highly objectionable” and an act which amounted to “infringement of India’s sovereignty and territorial integrity”.
Stating that Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh are, have been and shall always remain an integral part of India, it added that Foreign Secretary Vinay Mohan Kwatra has lodged a strong protest with the British High Commissioner in India on this infringement.
