NEW DELHI: India today played down the usage of “Indian administered Jammu and Kashmir” by the US in a statement issued during the visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying similar terms have been used in the past too.
On Monday, while designating Hizbul Mujahideen chief Syed Salahuddin as a “Specially Designated Global Terrorist”, the US State Department had said the militant group had claimed responsibility for several attacks, including the April 2014 explosives attack in “Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir”, which injured 17 people.
