ISLAMABAD: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Pakistan Amir Senator Sirajul Haq said on Wednesday that the Kashmir issue is above the politics but unfortunately government could not highlight this issue at international level and failed to meet the nation’s expectations in fighting the case of Kashmir after Modi’s 5th August, 2019 step.
Sirajul Haq expressed these views while addressing National Kashmir Conference, hosted by the Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Pakistan at a local hotel on Wednesday. The Kashmir conference has proposed the formation of a joint political task force and creation of special seat of vice-foreign minister on Kashmir to highlight and fight the case of the Indian Held Kashmir (IHK) at international level, says a press release.
JI Amir Senator Sirajul Haq presided over the conference while Azad Jammu & Kashmir President Sardar Masood Khan, National Assembly Speaker Asad Qaisar, former prime minister Raja Pervez Ashraf, PML-N senior leaders Senator Raja Zafarul Haq and Senator Mushahid Hussain Syed, JI Naib Amir Liaquat Baloch, JI Secretary General Ameerul Azim, JUI-F Secretary General Abdul Ghafoor Haidri, senior diplomat Abdul Basit, senior journalist Hamid Mir and others were among the speakers.
“We will move forward on the proposal of Senator Mushahid Hussain Syed for the formation of joint political task force. Government and opposition parties must work together for the cause,” said Senator Siraj.
JI Amir asked the government to develop with national consensus a National Action Plan on Kashmir. He assured the government support from all political parties to the cause once it took a step forward on the issue. Unfortunately, he regretted, the government failed to meet the nation expectations and fight the case of Kashmir after Modi’s 5th August, 2019 step.
“Government should announce a diplomatic emergency on Kashmir. It should give status to the AJK government as the representative body of entire Kashmir (including the Indian occupied area). Government should immediately host international Kashmir conference.
