Hours after Indian government scrapped Article 370 of the Constitution that accords special status to Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan has condemned the move, saying that it will exercise all possible options to counter the "illegal steps".

"Pakistan strongly condemns and rejects the announcements made today by the Indian Government regarding the Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir," Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) said in a statement.

Pakistan's external affair ministry alleged that "the Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir is an internationally recognized disputed territory", adding that no unilateral step by the Indian government can change this disputed status, as enshrined in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions.

This will never be acceptable to the people of Jammu and Kashmir and Pakistan, it said.
