Pakistan on Wednesday rejected Indian objections to Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi's telephone call to Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and reaffirmed support for the Kashmir cause.

"The government of Pakistan categorically rejects the objections raised by India to the Pakistan Foreign Minister's telephonic call to All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) leader Mirwaiz Umar Farooq," said Foreign Office Spokesperson Dr Mohammad Faisal in response to Indian government objection to the Tuesday's telephonic conversation with the senior Kashmir leader. "We would like to reiterate that Kashmir is an outstanding dispute between India and Pakistan, and acknowledged as such through UN Security Council resolutions as well as numerous Pakistan-India documents including the Simla Agreement and Lahore Declaration," Dr Faisal said, adding that Kashmir issue remains on the agenda of the UN Security Council.
