Islamabad: The differences of opinion between the military and the elected government in Pakistan once again came to the fore on Monday when Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif wants to establish good relations with India, its army chief Gen Raheel Sharif ruffled India’s feathers by stating that it is an "unfinished agenda" of the Partition in 1947 and Pakistan and Kashmir are "inseparable".

Gen Raheel Sharif also linked peace with India to resolving the Kashmir issue according to the UN resolutions. "While we wish peace, stability in the region, we want Kashmir's just resolution in the light of UN resolutions," he said while addressing cadets at the National Defence University.
Amidst exchange of barbs, Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Wednesday struck a conciliatory note saying he wants to establish good relations with India. Sharif was talking to Pakistan High Commissioner to India Abdul Basit, who met him in Islamabad and briefed him about recent statements by Indian leaders.
India’s spokesperson in the External Affairs Ministry Vikas Swarup, referring to the upcoming elections in Gilgit and Baltistan, said on Monday that it is an attempt by Pakistan to "camouflage its forcible and illegal occupation" of the regions which are integral part of India.
Responding to India’s statement, the Pakistani said, "It is actually India which is unlawfully occupying the territories of Jammu and Kashmir." "To maintain its illegal hold on that disputed territory, India has deployed over 700,000 of its forces, atrociously tries to suppress majority voice of Kashmiri Muslims and holds sham elections at gun-point," it said.
