We are deeply concerned about the continuing military confrontation in Kashmir following the infiltration of armed intruders which violated the Line of Control. We regard any military action to change the status quo as irresponsible. We, therefore, call for the immediate end of these actions, restoration of the Line of Control and for the parties to work for an immediate cessation of the fighting; full respect in the future for the Line of Control and the resumption of the dialogue  between India and Pakistan in the spirit of the Lahore Declaration.
