Addressing the General Debate of the Fourth Committee of the UN General Assembly on Questions relating to Information, Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament Rajeev Shukla on Tuesday stressed that inclusive access to information is essential for fostering trust, accountability and good governance.
"A (Pakistani) delegation has yet again used this august forum for peddling lies and falsehood. It is habitual for this delegation to resort to disinformation and misinformation, including in this forum. This delegation tends to measure the world's largest democracy using similar yardsticks," he said.
Delivering a strong retort in the UN debate after Pakistan raised the issue of Jammu and Kashmir, Shukla said, "Let me be clear. Real democracies function differently. The people of Jammu and Kashmir turned out in record numbers in the recently concluded free and fair elections."
Assembly elections were held in Jammu and Kashmir in three phases from September 18 to October 1.
