India Rejects Pakistan-China Boundary Joint Commission, Citing No Legal Basis
India has rejected the newly operationalised Pakistan-China Boundary Joint Commission, stating it has no legal basis and asserting there is no recognised boundary between Pakistan and China. The Ministry of External Affairs reiterated that Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh are integral parts of India, and Pakistan has no authority over these territories under its illegal occupation. India also condemned the 1963 China-Pakistan Boundary Agreement as invalid and called on Pakistan to vacate the occupied areas. Pakistan and China described the commission as a step to enhance border cooperation.
