Pak cannot be cowed down by Indian threats: Interior minister

“Pakistan will not step back from lending moral, diplomatic and political support to the Kashmiris struggling to achieve their internationally recognised right to self-determination”, he said while talking to Prime Minister of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) Raja Mohammad Farooq Haider Khan.

The announcement was made by former prime minister of Pakistan-administered Kashmir (PaK) Barrister Sultan Mahmood Chaudhry during a presser in Pakistan’s capital Islamabad on Tuesday, Pakistan-based Dawn newspaper reported.

He said Indian forces can not stop people of Kashmir from their right to self-determination through use of force.

Syed Ali Gilani said that Indian media and politicians are keeping criminal silence over the genocide of Kashmiri people in the territory.

The Interior Minister said grave human rights violations in occupied Kashmir and disrespect to United Nations resolutions on Kashmir should be a matter of concern for the world body and worldwide community as well.

He said the Indian attitude of hurling baseless allegation at Pakistan and its avoidance to hold meaningful talks with Pakistan are the main hurdle for peace in the region.

Aziz referred to the killing of “youth leader” Burhan Wani and the use of pellet guns by Indian forces against Kashmiri protesters following his death. “Over 700 Kashmiris have lost their eyesight”, he said in a statement.

He said these negative tactics would not work and the brutal face of India would be exposed before the world.
