India has slammed Pakistan for "weaponising" women's rights issues for self-serving political gains in Jammu and Kashmir, saying it is ironical that a country where violations of women's right to life in the name of "honour" go unpunished, is making "baseless" statements about it in India.

The Jammu and Kashmir government on Wednesday said Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan's reference to the situation in the state at the United Nations General Assembly last week was a "story of falsehoods," saying that life in the Valley had returned to near normal since the abrogation of Article 370 in August this year.

A day after over 40 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel were killed in the deadliest terror attack on security forces in Jammu and Kashmir, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and top ministers held a security review meeting.

As Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif spoke of Kashmir and eulogized terrorist Burhan Wani to a domestic audience, India made a scathing statement today at the United Nations, describing the neighbouring country's approach as an "anachronistic" one that is past its "sell-by date".
