Punjab Governor Chaudhry Mohammad Sarwar said on Wednesday that Kashmir issue should be settled in accordance with United Nations resolutions and no other solution will be acceptable and also rejected US President Donald Trump's formula for resolving Palestine issue.
He said this while addressing "Solidarity Kashmir Conference" organized by Nazria-e-Pakistan Trust (NPT) in connection with Kashmir Solidarity Day here on Wednesday. Former Chief Justice Mian Mehboob Ahmed, former MNA Begum Mehnaz Rafi, former Senator Naeem Hussain Chattha, Dr Rafique Ahmed, Mian Shahid Rasheed, Mian Farooq Altaf and others were present.
The governor maintained that Kashmir is Pakistan and Pakistan is Kashmir, and both cannot be separated.
"Kashmiris are raising slogan of "Kashmir Baney Ga Pakistan" even in front of Indian tanks and guns; the people of occupied Kashmir are struggling against tyrannies and barbarism, and they actually fighting our war. People of Kashmir love Pakistan," the Governor said, adding: "Today, American Senate, Congress, European Parliament and British Parliament are echoed for the rights of Kashmiris following sincere efforts of Pakistan under the leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan."
On the issue of Kashmir, US President Donald Trump is requested for mediation to get Kashmir dispute settled down in accordance with United Nations Organization (UNO)'s resolutions and no Trump formula of any sort will be accepted for Kashmir issue, the governor said, adding: "The UNO and other international organizations should play their roles in resolving this serious issue as per provisions of the UN resolutions. Every Pakistan will sacrifice even his last drop of blood for liberation of Kashmir."
According to him, Quaid-e-Azam had already deemed Kashmir as jugular vein of Pakistan and Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah had termed Kashmir as soul of Pakistan that is why no world power can separate us from Kashmiris. Despite India had been imposing curfew in occupied Kashmir for the last 185 days through its one million army men and turned occupied Kashmir into world's biggest prison, Kashmiris' quest for freedom is still unflinching and even today, slogans of "Kashmir Baney Ga Pakistan" are raised in the occupied valley. No doubt, Kashmiris are struggling to defend jugular vein of Pakistan.
The governor said that Pakistan will take along Kashmiris at every forum and ready to render any sort of sacrifice for freedom of Kashmir.
Former Chief Justice Mian Mehboob Ahmed and ex-MNA Mehnaz Rafi said that 220 million people of Pakistan are with Kashmiris and Pakistan is incomplete without Kashmir. We demand the Prime Minister Imran Khan, Punjab Governor Chaudhry Mohammad Sarwar and the entire government to expedite efforts on diplomatic front for liberation of Kashmiris and to expose tainted face of India to the global community, and Kashmiris must get rid of Indian aggression not tomorrow but today, they said.
