Former Afghan president Hamid Karzai, who still holds significant influence in his country’s power corridor, backed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s red flagging of human rights violations in Balochistan. They resorted to massive demonstrations against the statement of Modi, condemning that and Indian atrocities in IOK. Digvijaya Singh says India-Occupied Kashmir.

This is as preposterous a position to take as can be. We remind the Prime Minister that it is not a photo opportunity… “I am 100 percent sure that this is being instigated by Pakistan”, he said. He has hit bang on by going with the growing national sentiment. “I look forward to meeting the Indian Consular General next week to discuss this important issue”. So much so that today if you are referred being a secularist, you can consider yourself to be perceived as someone who is opposed to nation’s interests. They hailed PM’s reference to PoK, Balochistan and Gilgit as a right step. No right thinking leader or party can afford it. “Even P Chidambaram’s statement on Kashmir was swiftly clarified by Congress”.
Zakaria said Pakistan had proposed to India to hold talks on Kashmir. Modi did exactly that to keep his domestic constituency enthused to him. In another distracting move, Indian PM tried to mislead the world about the situation in Balochistan, AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan.
I am a close follower and observer of both national and worldwide politics with a special attention on Modi diplomacy.
The Association appealed to the President and Prime Minister of India to restrain the army units in Kashmir from using excessive force to control the protest rallies and to restore peace in the Kashmir valley as soon as possible. “We also agree that the platform of the OIC must be used to build a narrative against extremism and terrorism”, he added.
The external affairs ministry is speaking in a language that is otherwise heard from military commanders. Pakistan’s record of cross-border terrorism and infiltration were central to the problems in Balochistan. As per Indian media, Indian Foreign Secretary said that, “We have also conveyed that government of India rejects in their entirety the self-serving allegations regarding the situation in J&K, which is an integral part of India where Pakistan has no locus standi”.
Indian prime minister’s comments were said to be in retaliation to Pakistan’s comments on Kashmir issue.
Meanwhile Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN Dr. Maleeha Lodhi said on Saturday that India is non-serious in finding a solution to the Kashmir dispute.

Jaishankar “also underlined the importance of bringing to justice all those guilty in Pakistan for the Mumbai terrorist attack of 2008 and Pathankot airbase attack (in January this year)”.
