ISLAMABAD: While praying for early recovery of Chairman All Parties Hurriyat Conference Syed Ali Geelani, Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said on Sunday that Geelani’s existence happens to be a great source of encouragement for the people of Kashmir.
In a video message, the foreign minister said he represented millions of Pakistani people to pray for Geelani’s good health and long life.
“You are a rock in your resolve. The way you have represented the unarmed Kashmiri people during last six decades and became a flag bearer of their right to self-determination, is unprecedented in the history,” Qureshi remarked. “Even, no worldly favours, oppression, torture or detention could deter Ali Geelani’s resolve.”
The foreign minister said after the Indian unilateral action of August 5 last year, the people who had been opposing his viewpoint were now looking convinced and admitting of wasting their time for believing the Indian government’s false commitments.
“The people of Pakistan and Kashmir, living anywhere in the world, are praying for your recuperation because you have become a symbol of courage, resolve and the ideology of self-determination,” Qureshi said and assured the people of Kashmir that whole of Pakistan stood beside them.
“We believe that your sacrifices will come to fruition and you will also get liberation from the oppression and Indian subjugation,” Qureshi said.
