UN resolution bars unilateral change of Kashmir’s status: Chinese scholar

BEIJING: According to United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions, pending the resolution of Jammu & Kashmir dispute, India cannot bring about a material change in the status in Jammu & Kashmir.
The UNSC resolution envisages the resolution of the Jammu & Kashmir dispute through a plebiscite to be held under the auspices of the UN to determine the wishes of the Kashmiri people, Cheng Xizhong, Visiting Professor at Southwest University of Political Science and Law said on Wednesday.
August 5, 2020 marks the first anniversary of India’s abrogation of Article 370 and 35A of its constitution changing the status of Jammu & Kashmir State. The Indian government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi split the “State” of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) into two “Union Territories” (J and K and Ladakh) and thus brought them under New Delhi’s direct rule.
This was a historical turning point. From then on, the already turbulent Indian society became more turbulent, the already divided Indian nation was more split, and the rapidly developing Indian economy began to decline.
The action to change the status of Jammu & Kashmir is the continuation of India’s decades-old expansionist tendency.
In the 1970s, India successively divided Pakistan and annexed Sikkim by force of arms. Now India controls Bhutan as a de-facto colony.
While consolidating the occupied territories, India has announced the establishment of “the Union Territory of Ladakh”, attempting to restart the “forward policy” vis-a -vis China and continues to occupy Chinese territory.
India’s regional hegemonism and expansionism are the fundamental factors affecting peace, stability and development in the region. India sees itself as the master of the region.
If any country doesn’t obey it, India will create trouble for that country.
