Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar has reiterated Pakistan’s resolve to continue extending diplomatic, moral and political support for the peaceful resolution of the Kashmir issue as per aspirations of the Kashmiri people and UN resolutions.
Addressing Special Session of the Azad Kashmir Legislative Assembly in Muzaffarabad today, he said India cannot impose any unilateral solution on Kashmir. He said Kashmir has been an important point of the foreign policy of Pakistan.
The Prime Minister said Pakistan has always raised the voice for Kashmir cause on all world fora. He said this resolve has the support of the people of Pakistan.
Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar said Kashmir issue can only be resolved through a plebiscite under UN auspices and as per resolutions of the United Nations and aspirations of the people of Kashmir.
The Prime Minister said Jammu and Kashmir being a Muslim majority area of British India should have been part of Pakistan but the aspirations of Kashmiri people were crushed by force and conspiracies.
He said the area of Azad Jammu and Kashmir was freed after a lot of struggle and Pakistan remains committed to its progress and development.
The Prime Minister said India took the dispute to the United Nations which recognized the territory as disputed and decided in favor of a free and fair plebiscite to be held under the auspices of the United Nations.
He said decades have passed but the people of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir have not been given the opportunity to decide their future.
Reiterating Pakistan’s unflinching support to the Kashmiri people, Anwaar ul Haq Kakar urged India to respect its promises made before the UN Security Council and above all to the people of IIOJK.
He said Indian claims of being largest democracy are all hollow and the UNSC resolutions will never go redundant.
