Islamabad: President Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Barrister Sultan Mahmood Chaudhry has said that in this crucial phase of the Kashmir movement, efforts need to be intensified at the international level to highlight the Kashmir issue and mobilize the overseas Kashmiri community.
These views were expressed by President Barrister Sultan Mahmood Chaudhry during a detailed meeting with the delegation of Tehreek-e-Kashmir UK, led by its President Fahim Kiani, at Kashmir House here on Thursday.
He said that since 5th August 2019, the Indian-occupied Kashmir has witnessed escalating human rights violations and suppression. Therefore, it is imperative for the overseas Kashmiri community to play an effective role in raising the Kashmir issue in the European Parliament and the European Union, so that India’s sinister intentions can be exposed to the world.
On this occasion, President Barrister Sultan Mahmood Chaudhry urged the Tehreek-e-Kashmir UK and European delegation to intensify their efforts to raise the Kashmir issue on the international level and emphasized that the overseas Kashmiri community has kept the Kashmir issue alive on international forums, and today, the world understands the Kashmir issue due to their efforts.
“The overseas Kashmiris should utilize all their energies to highlight the Kashmir issue at the international level, expose the dark face of India to the world, which is committing gross human rights violations in the occupied Kashmir, and effectively convey to the world the plight of the Kashmiri people who are suffering from Indian oppression and brutality”, President AJK added.
He said that the world should be made aware that the Kashmiri people deserve the right to self-determination as per the United Nations resolutions, and efforts should be intensified to achieve that goal.
The delegation included President Tehreek-e-Kashmir Spain Shafiq Tabassum, President Tehreek-e-Kashmir Scotland Raja Hanif, Senior Vice President Tehreek-e-Kashmir Italy Mahmood Sharif, President Business Forum Tehreek-e-Kashmir UK and Hanifullah Gondal.
