Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar met with Mashaal Malik, wife of Kashmiri Hurriyat leader Yasin Malik. Governor Punjab also awarded Allama Iqbal Award to Mashaal Malik for raising her voice for Kashmiris.
Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar and Mashaal Malik also called for immediate resolution of Kashmir issue for lasting peace in the region.
According to the details, Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar met with Mashaal Malik at Governor House Lahore.
Kashmir issue and other issues were discussed during the meeting. A special ceremony was also held at Governor House to present Allama Iqbal Award to Mashaal Malik in recognition of her contribution for raising voice for the rights of Kashmiris.
Ch Sarwar while talking on the occasion said that Kashmir is the jugular vein of Pakistan. Pakistanis cannot separate themselves from Kashmiri brethren even for a moment, adding that the nation stands firm like a rock with Kashmiri brothers and sisters.
He said that Indian forces at the behest of Narendra Modi have unleashed reign of terror in Kashmir, adding that the Muslim community must also unite and raise their voice against the RSS agenda in India. Ch Sarwar said that the dream of peace in the region can never be materialized without the resolution of the Kashmir issue.
He said that Prime Minister Imran Khan is fighting for Kashmir’s independence all over the world by becoming the ambassador of Kashmiris as promised, and the ongoing Indian atrocities against Kashmiris are being exposed all over the world.
He urged the International organizations, including the United Nations to end their silence on the Kashmir issue, adding that according to UN resolutions, it is the responsibility of the UN to resolve the Kashmir issue, which must be fulfilled in any case.
Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar said that since Narendra Modi came to power, not only Kashmiris but also other minorities including Muslims living in India have been subjected to worse atrocities and human rights are being violated there too.
One thing India must understand is that they cannot suppress the voice of Kashmiris with the power of guns and bullets, he added. Punjab Governor said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan, 220 million Pakistanis are with their Kashmiri brothers and sisters.
Mashaal Malik, wife of Kashmiri Hurriyat leader Yasin Malik, said that Narendra Modi’s government has made Kashmir the largest prison in the world. Innocent Kashmiris are being imprisoned as well as being massacred.
After failing in all its plans, India is also conspiring to make Kashmiris a minority by settling Hindus in Kashmir, adding that all Islamic countries including Pakistan should unanimously raise their voice against this.
Mashaal Malik said that India cannot suppress the independence movement of Kashmiris on the basis of power.
The Kashmiri people are still in high spirits. They are ready to face all the atrocities of India for their freedom. She said that if not today, then tomorrow Kashmir will be free.
Without Kashmir, Pakistan and without Pakistan, Kashmir is incomplete. She said that the spirit and courage by which the Kashmiri people are fighting for their independence deserve earnest appreciation.
