Srinagar
In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, APHC leader and the Chairman of Jammu and Kashmir Democratic Political Movement, Khawaja Firdous, has paid glowing tributes to Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah on the eve of his 144th birth anniversary.
Khawaja Firdous in a statement issued in Srinagar said that Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah had declared Kashmir as the jugular vein of Pakistan and that Pakistan was incomplete without it.
He said that Quaid-e-Azam was a historical figure who fought for a separate homeland for the Muslims of the subcontinent. He said that Pakistan came into being on the basis of Two-Nation Theory and this ideology also provides the basis for Kashmiris’ liberation movement.
Khawaja Firdous said, minorities in India, especially Muslims are insecure and from day one India has discriminated against the Muslims and other minorities not only in IIOJK but also in India.
He said, the Kashmiris’ freedom movement is a continuation of the Pakistan Movement and Kashmir dispute is an incomplete agenda of partition of India. He added that India was conspiring to turn the Muslim majority of IIOJK into a minority but the Kashmiris would never allow it to succeed in its nefarious designs. He deplored that India had deployed more than 900,000 troops in the occupied territory to suppress the Kashmiris’ freedom struggle and keep the outside world unaware of the ground situation.—KMS
