ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Tuesday categorically rejected as unwarranted and deceived the reflections made by the functionary prophet of the Indian Ministry of External Affairs on China Pakistan Economic Corridor( CPEC), calling it an trouble to politicise the design.
In a statement, the Foreign Office prophet said CPEC was a transformational design and a precursor of stability, collective cooperation and participated development for the region.

He said China’s investment in CPEC had helped Pakistan overcome the energy and infrastructural backups that formerly constrained growth and development.
Attempts to cast aspersions over CPEC show India’s instability as well as the pursuit of a hegemonic docket that has held back socioeconomic development in South Asia for decades, he reflected.
While rejecting India’s fallacious assertion that CPEC impinges on its sovereignty and territorial integrity, the prophet refocused out that it was in fact India that was immorally enwrapping the state of Jammu and Kashmir for over seven decades.
He said India’s attempts to mislead the transnational community about the status of Jammu and Kashmir and to hide its atrocities against the Kashmiri people would noway succeed. India was advised to desist from lies and unwarranted claims over a home that it continued to immorally enthrall through brute force, he added. The prophet said the Jammu and Kashmir disagreement remained an internationally recognised disagreement on the United Nations docket and “ its result lies in exercise of the right of tone- determination in agreement with the applicable UN Security Council judgments and the wishes of the Kashmiri people ”.
