As a diplomatic win for India, Pakistan failed to garner the majority support at the 42nd UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) session in Geneva, to place a resolution on Kashmir within the stipulated deadline of 1 pm, ANI reported.

Imran Khan had to get the support of minimum 16 nations to move the resolution on Jammu and Kashmir issue in the 47-member UNHRC.

Most member states at the United Nations Human Rights Council session refused to side with Pakistan's Prime Minister Imran Khan to place a resolution on Kashmir, an unidentified source told ANI. Moreover, the neighbor country also failed to gain the support of the Organisation of Islamic countries (OIC).
