Tehreek-e-Kashmir (TeK)-Europe President Muhammad Ghalib has said that the Kashmiris have faced Indian oppression with courage and bravery and urged the government of Pakistan and other political and religious leaders to take concrete steps.
Speaking at an event on the ‘Plight of Kashmiris’, Ghalib also said that the international community must play its role in stopping the ongoing Indian barbarism and oppression in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
India has adopted a stubborn and disrespectful attitude, he said. The UN had declared that the Kashmiris will be given the chance to decide about their future but unfortunately, the UN has been unable to implement its resolutions on Kashmir, he added.
“The TeK-Europe is playing its due role by becoming the voice of the Kashmiris. Pakistan, which is a key player in the Kashmir issue and is also the advocate of the Kashmir cause, has to play a vital role at this stage,” he stressed.
“India is trying every tactic to weaken the Kashmiris economically, which will break the economic backbone of the Kashmiris and suppress the ongoing independence movement in Kashmir. But in spite of all these tactics the movement for independence will continue.”
Senior Hurriyat leader and Jammu and Kashmir Salvation Movement (JKSM) Chairman Altaf Ahmed Bhat commended the TeK-UK and Europe for working for the Kashmir cause in dynamic manner.
