India has firmly rejected the so‑called Pakistan‑China Boundary Joint Commission, declaring it legally invalid and without any basis.
Responding to media queries, Randhir Jaiswal, spokesperson for the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), said Pakistan has no locus standi to enter into boundary arrangements concerning Indian territory under its illegal and forcible occupation.
Jaiswal reiterated that the Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh have been, are, and will always remain integral parts of India. He stressed that New Delhi has never recognised the 1963 China‑Pakistan Boundary Agreement, consistently maintaining that it is both illegal and invalid.
The MEA spokesperson further noted that India resolutely opposes and rejects any attempt to alter the status of occupied territories or to legitimise what it calls Pakistan’s illegal occupation. Instead of engaging in such “theatrics,” New Delhi urged Islamabad to vacate areas under its unlawful control.
India’s rejection underscores its long‑standing position on territorial sovereignty and its opposition to external attempts to redraw boundaries in the region.
