The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- India has rejected the newly operationalised Pakistan-China Boundary Joint Commission, whose first meeting was held in Islamabad on Wednesday.
- The Ministry of External Affairs said there is no recognised boundary between Pakistan and China concerning Indian territory, and no such arrangement has any legal basis.
- India reiterated that Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh, are integral and inseparable parts of India, and Pakistan has no right to make agreements about territory under its illegal occupation.
- New Delhi also stated that it has never recognised the 1963 China-Pakistan boundary agreement, under which Pakistan allegedly ceded 5,180 sq km of Indian territory in the Shaksgam valley to China.
- The rejection matters because India says such moves attempt to legitimise illegal occupation and affect Indian sovereignty, while Pakistan-India relations and border arrangements in the region remain contentious.
What to watch next
- Further meetings or activities of the Pakistan-China Boundary Joint Commission on border management and joint surveys
- Any follow-up statements or diplomatic responses from China or Pakistan to India's rejection
- Whether India raises the issue in future diplomatic engagements with either country
