MIRPUR (AJK): Vehemently condemning the recent provocative statement of Indian army chief threatening Pakistan of launching aggression, Central Secretary General of Jammu Kashmir Peoples Party Syed Nishat Kazmi said that India lives in the paradise of fools even think about any misadventure against Pakistan or Azad Jammu Kashmir.
Talking to this Correspondent here on Wednesday, the top leader of the JKPP, one of the parliamentary party of opposition in AJK Legislative Assembly described the Indian aggressive and war mongering posture and the statement by its Army chief as highly coward and irresponsible.
Nishat Kazmi continued that it was ground reality that India had failed to defeat the fast emerging Kashmiris indigenous struggle for the achievement of their birth right of self-determination. He said that various other grim domestic problems including massive corruption charges against Modi regime and the indigenous separatist movements like Khalistan and others in India have uprooted the nights of New Delhi. “And therefore, the hardliner Modi’s ruling junta have no option to hurl threats at Pakistan to divert the attention of her (India) population from the fast emerging domestic issues”, he Kashmir leader observed.
Secretary General of Jammu Kashmir Peoples Party declared that India should keep it in mind that she had no option than to grant Jammu Kashmir people complete freedom from her long shekels. India, he further said should also remember that Pakistan is an atomic power and its armed forces are rated as one of the best in the world.
The Kashmir leader said that entire Pakistani nation, besides the people of Azad Jammu Kashmir, stands united and always prepared, shoulder to shoulder the valiant armed forces of Pakistan, to frustrate any aggression from across the borders and the line of control in the internationally-acknowledged disputed Jammu Kashmir state, with full vigor.
Syed Nishat Kazmi said that India should keep matching response to peace-loving approach of Pakistan resuming meaningful talks to ensure early peaceful settlement of all outstanding disputes including the core issue of Jammu & Kashmir.
Wars, the JKPP leader said, were not the source of settlement of the issues. Because the wars only bring destruction and former subcontinent can’t afford a war at this stage. He said the dream of both India and Pakistan of progress and prosperity could only be achieved through peace in the region. “We will turn AJK the graveyard of Indian forces if they dared to launch any misadventure against Pakistan or AJK, he warned.
