SRINAGAR: The chairman of the Hurriyat (M) Mirwaiz Umer Farooq, on Thursday said that after its Pakistan tour, his alliance would undertake a visit to China.
Certain political parties in Pakistan are in contact with Chinese diplomats, he said in an interview. Having already visited Pakistan, a delegation of the Hurriyat (M) will undertake a visit to China in the near future.
We will garner diplomatic support from wherever we can, he said.
Being in control of the Aksai Chin region, a large portion of the Jammu and Kashmir state, China had recently escalated its row with India by refusing to stamp visas on the Indian passports of the states residents.
It issued stand-alone or stapled visa documents, ostensibly to show that it did not consider Jammu and Kashmir an integral part of India, a move that separatists in the valley lauded wholeheartedly.
