Pakistan will not let Kashmir become Palestine: Fawad
Rome
Minister of State for SAFRON and Narcotics Control Shehryar Khan Afridi warned that Kashmir dispute could be a nuclear flashpoint in South Asia. He said this while addressing Pakistani Community in Italy where a large number of Pakistani expatriates joined a reception to mark the Independence Day celebrations and Kashmir solidarity day.
Afridi said that India was conspiring to stage a false flag operation near line of control (LoC) in order to shift the world focus from state terrorism by its forces in Occupied Kashmir.
Earlier on August 17, Director General Inter-Service Public Relations (ISPR) Major General Asif Ghafoor had called Kashmir a ‘nuclear flashpoint’ and had urged the world to pay attention to the pressing issue.
Addressing a joint press conference with Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi, the DG ISPR had rejected the impression that Pakistan was provoking tensions on the Line of Control (LoC). He had said Pakistan will never take any such step that would bring damage to the Kashmir cause. ‘India is increasing tensions on LoC, and ‘[a] Pulwama like drama can be expected again from India,’ he had stated.
Meanwhile, Federal Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry Friday stressed that the only solution to Pak-India tension is ‘dialogue and not war’ but India should not take Pakistan’s desire for peace as a sign of its weakness.
Talking to private news channel he assured, ‘Pakistan would not let Kashmir become Palestine’, adding, we fought for Kashmir cause in the past and we would continue to fight for Kashmir till its resolve.
He urged International Community specially the UN Security Council and Human Rights Organizations to stop India from committing gross violations of human rights and atrocities in Indian occupied Kashmir.
He also strongly condemned Indian atrocities on innocent people of IoK, adding, Pakistan was pursuing an effective foreign policy to sensitize the world regarding this matter.
Pakistan has left no stone unturned to highlight the Kashmir issue at the international front, he mentioned. .—INP
