Islamabad, April 6, 2017: A group of six British parliamentarians from the ruling Conservative Party on Thursday called for a just and early solution to "the lingering Kashmir issue" in accordance with the United Nations Security Council resolutions and the wishes and aspirations of the Kashmiri people.

The visiting MPs suggested that the UN should send an independent and impartial commission to both parts of the disputed Himalayan region to ascertain the situation on the ground, Dawn reported.

The British lawmakers, who travelled to Pakistan on the invitation of National Assembly Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq on April 2, visited Muzaffarabad to meet government officials and people from other walks of life, including Kashmiri refugees living in different camps. (IANS)
