During PM Modi’s rule, Jammu & Kashmir has been removed from the United Nations list of unresolved disputes

Publisher’s rating: MISLEADING

The post presents an alleged change to the UN’s handling of Jammu & Kashmir as something that happened during Narendra Modi’s time as prime minister. The review traces the claim instead to a speech at the UN General Assembly’s 65th annual meeting in November 2010, before Modi became prime minister. It says Manmohan Singh was India’s prime minister at the time, so that episode cannot support the claim’s timing or attribution to Modi. [S1]
