Pakistan has exposed fascist, racist face of India: Firdous

ISLAMABAD: Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous  Ashiq Awan on Wednesday said that Pakistan has fully exposed the fascist, racist  and extremist face of Indian government, which has been following following the ideology of Hindutwa.

Speaking as chief guest at a seminar on Kashmir scenario, she said that the Prime Minister has emerged as the best advocate of Kashmir by pleading their  case through diplomacy.

She said that inhuman Indian repression of the people of Indian Occupied  Kashmir has undermined its claim of largest democracy of the world.

In IOK, Indian occupation forces have literally turned the state into a  open-air prison by imposing clampdown and curfew and cutting the valley  from rest of the world by suspending communication linkages internet,  broadband, mobile and landline telephone services.

She said that Kashmiris were facing acute shortage of edibles and  medicines and looking towards the world community and human rights  organizations.

She said that in civilized world, torture of even animals was not  tolerated but here 8 million Kashmiri humans were brutalized and  imprisoned by colonial forces of India.

The arrival of Saudi deputy foreign minister and United Arab  Emirates (UAE) foreign minister, was manifestation of their trust  in the leadership of Imran Khan and his diplomatic efforts on  Kashmir, she added.

Terming students of International Islamic University as Pakistan’s  ambassadors in their respective countries, she expressed the hope  that they would advocate the case of Kashmir in their native countries.

Appreciating the management of IIU for feeling the pain of Kashmiri  brethren, Dr Firdous said that such support for the Kashmir cause would  prove a source of inspiration for the besieged people of Kashmir.

She said that the students of the university would become a source  of promoting true and soft image of Pakistan in the world. She said that  Pakistan’s narrative on Kashmir was based on principles and it was  also responsibility of the students of the university to promote this  stance.

She said that condemnation by Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC)   of the inhuman curfew and communication blackout in Occupied Kashmir  was diplomatic victory of Pakistan and a clear defeat of India.

However she said that " people of Pakistan and Kashmir wanted more  concrete steps from the OIC as being Muslim we have the relationship  of body and soul."

For highlighting this issue, the Prime Minister had decided to observe  September 6 as Defence Day of Kashmir as it was the jugular vein of  Pakistan.

She said that martyrs of the nation were real heroes of the nation who  sacrificed their today for its tomorrow.

She said that Muslims here fully believed that wars were fought with  the power of faith in Allah Almighty.
