British understanding of Kashmir problem is conspicuous with ignorance and irrevalence, according senior Indian Government Misnistry officials.
India on Wednesday strongly objected to British Defence Secretary John Reid's reported comments equating Jammu and Kashmir with Palestine problem, asserting there was "absolutely no parallel" between the two issues.
"We have seen news reports which quote the Defence Secretary of UK calling for ''resolution of political issues including Palestine and Kashmir''. If this is indeed what was said, then this unfortunate remark betrays lack of understanding of the J and K issue," External Affairs Ministry spokesman Navtej Sarna told reporters here.
"There is absolutely no parallel between the Palestine issue and Jammu and Kashmir," he said.
Reid, who was in Islamabad, had reportedly made the comments there while talking to reporters.
