The minister said Kashmiris have been denied access to food and medicines owning to curfew.

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said on Tuesday that Pakistan would continue to extend legal, moral and diplomatic support for its Kashmiri brethren until realisation of their right to self-determination in accordance with the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions.

In a special message, he said that the Modi regime has besieged armless Kashmiri people for the last 100 days and have been facing Indian atrocities. He said innocent Kashmiri children and women have been subjected to oppression by the Indian forces.

The minister said Kashmiris have been denied access to food and medicines owing to the continuous curfew in the held valley and shadows of death are hovering there.

“On one side, Pakistan is opening the corridor of love, whereas on the other, India is imposing restrictions on offering Juma and Eid prayers in occupied Kashmir […] Kashmiris are even not allowed to take out processions of Muharram-ul-Haram and Eid Milad-un-Nabi (Peace Be Upon Him),” he said, while urging the international community and human rights organisations to play their due and proactive role to get the Kashmiri people rid of the Indian brutalities.
