India today has dismissed the so-called Pakistan-China Border Joint Commission, stating that there is no legality behind it and declaring Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh as an integral part of India.

Responding to media queries, Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, "We have seen reports on this matter. Our position on this matter has been clear and consistent. There is no border between Pakistan and China. We reject the so-called Joint Commission, which has no legal basis."

The Ministry of External Affairs stated that the entire Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh have been and will always remain integral and inalienable parts of India. The Ministry further stated, "Pakistan has no right to enter into any agreement regarding Indian territory that is under its illegal and forcible occupation."

India also reiterated that it has never recognized the so-called 1963 China-Pakistan Boundary Agreement and has always maintained that it is illegal and invalid.

The Ministry of External Affairs stated, "We strongly oppose and reject any attempt to change the status of these occupied territories or legitimize the occupation, as this undermines India's sovereignty and territorial integrity."

The Ministry of External Affairs also stated that any so-called border cooperation between China and Pakistan regarding Indian territories would be completely unacceptable. It would have no impact on India's sovereignty over these areas.

The Ministry of External Affairs stated, "Instead of such posturing, we urge Pakistan to immediately vacate the areas it has illegally and forcibly occupied."

In recent years, China has maintained military pressure along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with India. There have been reports of border violations and unauthorized incursions along all three sectors of the 3,488-kilometer border between the two countries.

The coordination between China and Pakistan on the border in the Karakoram region of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir also impacts India's historical and legal claims over that area.
