UNITED NATIONS: Concepts of democracy and constitution are alien to Pakistan that operates under the shadow of the military, and it can't understand how the ideals are integral to Kashmir, India has said, demanding that Islamabad end repression in areas it illegally occupies.

"The people of Jammu and Kashmir exercise their fundamental rights in accordance with India's time-tested democratic traditions and constitutional framework, " India's Permanent Representative to the UN, P. Harish, said on Friday.

"We, of course, know that these are concepts alien to Pakistan."
