Firdous Ashiq Awan said that Kashmir runs like blood in the body of every Pakistani.

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan on Monday said that Kashmir is calling for aid from Human Rights Council and global powers as Indian unilateral malicious act openly violated the United Nation Security Council‘s resolutions.

Talking to media representatives in Islamabad, she said that the people of Kashmir are making great sacrifices in the struggle for freedom. She expressed that Pakistan salutes the martyrs of freedom movement. “Kashmir runs like blood in our body”, she added.

Firdous Awan asserted that this move by the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has exposed fake secularism of the India. India acted dishonestly and put the region‘s peace at stake, she added. “India has emerged as the enemy of the region‘s development”.

She expressed that Pakistan and Kashmiris already have rejected the black law of India whereas India’s poisonous thinking played with peace in the region. “The world knows now who is the peacekeeper and who is the troublemaker,” she added.

Earlier today, amid escalating tension in occupied Kashmir following deployment of tens of thousands of additional troops, the Indian government ended special status of the valley while scrapping articles 35A and 370 of the Constitution.

In a malicious attempt to turn Muslim majority into minority in occupied Kashmir, the Indian president has signed a four-point amendment decree in this regard.

According to details, the announcement was made by Indian Home Minister Amit Shah during his address in Rajya Sabha, upper house of Indian parliament. Shah said, “Kashmir will no longer be a state. It will be divided into two union territories – Kashmir, which will have a legislature, and Ladakh, which will be without a legislature."

He also told that the valley would be re-organized geographically.”

The revocation of the articles has allowed other non-Muslim Indian citizens to buy land in the valley while a separate legislative assembly will be established there for its own laws.
