India on Thursday rejected China’s offer of meditation in resolving the Kashmir issue, insisting it was a bilateral matter between it and Pakistan.
India’s strong reaction came a day after the Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson said China was willing to play a “constructive role” in improving Indo-Pak ties, especially after the increased hostility along the Line of Control (LoC).
India while rejecting China’s offer to mediate to resolve the Kashmir issue, asserted that cross- border terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir was at the “heart” of the matter that was threatening regional peace and insisted it was a bilateral matter between it and Pakistan.
