Islamabad, October 27 - Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif reiterated Pakistan's steadfast position on the Jammu and Kashmir issue, emphasizing the importance of a fair and peaceful resolution in the context of the United Nations Security Council resolutions and the wishes of the Kashmiri populace.
