In response to media queries regarding proposed bus service through Pakistan Occupied Jammu & Kashmir, the Official Spokesperson said:
"We have lodged strong protests with China and Pakistan on the proposed bus service that will operate through Pakistan Occupied Jammu and Kashmir under the so-called ‘China-Pakistan Economic Corridor’. It is Government of India’s consistent and well-known position
that the so-called China-Pakistan "Boundary Agreement” of 1963 is illegal and invalid, and has never been recognised by the Government of India. Therefore, any such bus service through Pakistan Occupied Jammu & Kashmir will be a violation of India’s sovereignty
and territorial integrity."
