Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar said that Pakistan salutes the unwavering commitment and high passion of Kashmiris for the right to self-determination.
In his message, the chief minister said that February 5 reminded the international community to play its role for granting the right to Kashmiris to identify their political future in the light of UN resolutions. He said Kashmiris asked this question to the international community that why were they being deprived of their fundamental rights according to the UN charter. The international community, as well as the global human rights bodies, should play their effective role to stop the worst brutalities being committed by the occupied Indian armed forces, he added.
It is regrettable that the Modi government has turned the occupied Kashmir into world’s biggest jail with its unconstitutional tactics. The chief minister asserted that India cannot deprive the Kashmiris of their right to independence by illegally changing the constitutional status of occupied Kashmir and employing the policy of state-sponsored terrorism and torture. He emphasised that black face of claimants of so-called democracy has been fully exposed. The people of Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir were fighting a war of their survival and freedom as Kashmir was the unfinished agenda of Indian partition.
The Kashmiris have written a new history with their blood which was unique and unprecedented, he added.
Usman Buzdar reaffirmed that Pakistanis were standing shoulder to shoulder with their Kashmiri brethren and the nation strongly condemned inhuman treatment meted out to the Kashmiri population. ‘Today, the nation reassures the Kashmiris that they are not alone in their struggle and Prime Minister Imran Khan is fighting their case as an ambassador of Kashmiris’. He added that Prime Minister Imran Khan has effectively highlighted the Kashmir issue at every forum while the nation will continue to provide its diplomatic, moral and political support to the oppressed people of occupied Kashmir, concluded the chief minister.
