Benazir favours Shimla pact

New York: The former Pakistan Prime Minister, Benazir Bhutto, has favoured resolution of the Kashmir issue in accordance with the Shimla agreement.

“Any settlement of the issue should reflect the wishes of the people of Jammu and Kashmir,” the Pakistan People’s Party leader said at a press conference here on Saturday. She said her party stood for resolution of the Kashmir issue in accordance with the 1972 Shimla agreement. Ms. Bhutto said the India-China model was a good basis for promoting India-Pakistan ties. — PTI
