I will always remember Dr. Priya Ranjan not only as the Chairman of JK Monitor, but as a mentor, guide and elder brother whose kindness shaped my life and work. Write a tribute at JAMMU: BJP Spokesperson and Convenor, International Affairs, Gaurav Gupta on Thursday lauded India’s strong rebuttal to Pakistan and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) at the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC), terming it a “decisive diplomatic slap” to what he described as “habitual propaganda on Jammu and Kashmir.”
Referring to India’s right of reply during the 55th session of the UNHRC in Geneva, Gupta said India once again dismantled what he called Pakistan’s “manufactured narrative” on Kashmir. “Pakistan has reduced itself to an exporter of lies at international forums. Every time it raises Kashmir, it only exposes its own record of terror sponsorship and human rights abuses,” Gupta asserted.
He further accused the OIC of acting as a “mouthpiece” for Islamabad. “It is unfortunate that the OIC continues to parrot Pakistan’s script. Instead of focusing on genuine global human rights issues, it allows itself to be misused for narrow political agendas,” he said.
Gupta strongly echoed India’s position that the only outstanding issue remains Pakistan’s “illegal occupation of Indian territory.” He said, “If Pakistan is genuinely concerned about human rights, it must vacate the territories it has illegally occupied and stop aiding cross-border terrorism. Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India legally, historically, and constitutionally.”
Highlighting democratic progress in the Union Territory, Gupta pointed to the high voter turnout in recent Lok Sabha and Assembly elections, stating that the people of Jammu and Kashmir have “rejected separatism and terrorism decisively.” “The record participation in elections is the strongest rebuttal to Pakistan’s falsehoods. Ballots have defeated bullets,” he remarked.
Taking a sharp dig at Islamabad’s criticism of India’s development narrative, Gupta referred to the iconic Chenab Rail Bridge, described as the world’s highest railway bridge. “If Pakistan calls such historic infrastructure ‘fake’, then perhaps its leadership truly lives in a fantasy world. The Chenab Bridge stands tall as a symbol of New India’s resolve and Jammu and Kashmir’s transformation,” he said.
Gupta also contrasted the massive developmental push in Jammu and Kashmir with Pakistan’s economic crisis, referring to its repeated bailout packages from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). “While India is investing record funds in infrastructure, connectivity, tourism and youth empowerment in J&K, Pakistan is running from pillar to post seeking financial rescue. The developmental budget of J&K reflects India’s commitment to prosperity and peace,” he added.
Calling India’s response at the UNHRC “clear, confident and uncompromising,” Gupta said the global community is increasingly aware of Pakistan’s “double standards.” He asserted that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, India will continue to firmly counter misinformation at every international platform. “Jammu and Kashmir’s future is defined by democracy, development and dignity not by Pakistan’s outdated rhetoric,” Gupta stated.
