Pakistan Army chief General Raheel Sharif on Wednesday described Kashmir as  an "unfinished agenda of partition."


"Kashmir is an unfinished agenda of partition. Kashmir and Pakistan are unseparable," General Sharif said and added that the Pakistan army was capable enough to defeat the nefarious designs of the enemy.


"Contours of future wars are fast changing. Our enemies are supporting terrorism to stoke sub-conventional conflicts and destabilise our country," he said, while speaking at National Defence University in Islamabad.


The statement from the Pakistan Army chief comes just hours after New Delhi raised strong objections to Islamabad's plan to hold election in the Gilgit-Baltistan area of Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK).


The election, which is scheduled to be held on June 8, is as an attempt by Islamabad "to camouflage its forcible and illegal occupation of the regions" and to deny its people their political rights, external affairs ministry spokesperson Vikas Swarup had said.


"India's position is well known. The entire state of Jammu and Kashmir, which includes the regions of Gilgit and Baltistan, is an integral part of India," Swarup added. -- India Today
