Terming as "rubbish" India's assertions that cross-border infiltration continued in Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan on Monday said it would raise the Kashmir issue at an Organisation of Islamic Conference ministerial-level meeting.
Pakistan Information Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed, who was in Abu Dhabi on his way to attend the OIC information ministers' meeting in Cairo, said he would raise the Kashmir issue at the two-day meeting of the 56-nation grouping,
beginning Monday.
He said New Delhi's assertions about Pakistan-backed infiltration of militants into Kashmir were "rubbish" and added that India should accept Islamabad's proposal to increase the number of UN observers along the Line of Control in Kashmir, the
Khaleej Times reported.
Pakistan,
during a UN Security Council debate on Iraq a few days ago, had raked up the Kashmir issue to the surprise of the delegates. Pakistan is a non-permanent member of the 15-member Security Council.
