China, Pak Start Bus Service Through Pok Despite India's Strong Protest ndtv.com

NEW DELHI: A private bus service between Lahore in Pakistan and Kashgar in China was launched late on Monday night. The first bus left for Kashgar from the terminal at Lahore's Gulberg area, and will cover the one-way journey in 30 hours. The bus service however, will pass through Pakistan-occupied Kashmir's Gilgit-Baltistan region, which India has strongly protested.
"We have lodged strong protests with China and Pakistan on the bus service that will operate through Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir under the so-called China-Pakistan Economic Corridor," External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Raveesh Kumar had said recently.

India has protested the so called 'CPEC' project as it runs through PoK, which India maintains is part of Jammu and Kashmir, its northernmost state, and therefore Indian territory.
