NEW DELHI: Pakistan’s envoy to India Abdul Basit today said he is not aware whether Gilgit-Baltistan was being announced as the country’s fifth province, even though the region is part of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
Basit said he has not seen any proposal pertaining to the matter and was unaware if it was “really happening”.
“I have to be very frank and honest with you I have not seen any proposal to this effect so I would not like to comment on that because I have not seen anything to that effect,” he told NewsX in an interview. (AGENCIES)
