Urges govt to adopt tough stance against India

LAHORE

JI ameer Senator Sirajul Haq condemned India’s state terrorism in Held Kashmir resulting in the killing of over two dozen Kashmiri youth within three days and deployment of more Indian troops in the valley to crush the freedom movement. 

In a statement on Monday, he said a routine statement by the prime minister and foreign office’s protest would not force New Delhi to review its policy and the Pakistan government must adopt a tough stance against India. 

Stating that the Pakistani rulers had disappointed the nation on the Kashmir issue, Sirajul Haq said the rulers would have to decide whether they were with the Kashmiris or with India. He said the rulers had betrayed the Kashmiri martyrs as also the Pakistani nation by promoting trade and friendship with the India. He said it was the responsibility of Pakistan being a party to the Kashmir issue, to strive for an emergent UN Security Council meeting in order to stop the genocide of the Kashmiris.

He said the occupation army in Held Kashmir was carrying out the genocide of Kashmiris by planned killing of Kashmiris youth. He said the human rights bodies, and the world powers were silent over the incidents of the torching of mosques and gang rape of Kashmiri women. The silence of the world powers over the continued occupation of Kashmir and the massacre of the Kashmiris proved their enmity towards Islam and the Muslims.

He said the world community had not shown any interest in the grant of the right of self-determination to the Kashmiris who had been offering sacrifices for liberation for the last seventy years. Sirajul Haq said India had been building dams over the Pakistani rivers flowing from Kashmir in order to ruin agriculture of this country and convert it into a desert but the Pakistani rulers were crazy for friendship with India.

He said next to the Kashmiris, Pakistan and her people had paid the highest cost of the Kashmir issue but the rulers had not given any importance to the issue and were silent spectators.

Meanwhile, JI Naib ameer Hafiz Muhammad Idrees, in a statement, said state repression in Bangladesh had crossed all limits. He appealed to the world conscience to openly denounce Hasina Wajid’ s policies in the form of executions of innocent leading Muslim scholars and leaders and the ban on Dr Zakir Naik’s TV channel was its latest manifestation.

Hafiz Idrees said thousands of innocent men and women had been put to death in Bangladesh. The properties and the businesses of the peaceful JI workers and leaders were being taken over by the state with New Delhi’s blessings. He said none of the prominent Muslim scholars or leaders in Bangladesh supported extremism or killings and in fact, the secret agencies of India, US, Israel and Bangladesh were behind the terrorist organisations and their activities.
