F.P. Report

WASHINGTON: President Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Sardar Masood Khan has said that both Kashmir and Pakistan are incomplete without each other because Kashmir is a integral part of Pakistan.

This he said this while addressing a gathering of Pakistani American community at the Pakistan Embassy, Washington DC.

Sardar Masood added that Indian forces continuously carrying atrocities on the people of Kashmir and it is very unfortunate that the world kept its silence towards it and left the innocent people on the mercy of Indian forces.

Sardar Masood appreciated the freedom movement of Kashmiri people and also in the US and other countries for the keeping the issue alive.

Masood reiterated that peace in the South Asian region is not possible until the dispute of Jammu and Kashmir is resolved.

AJK President also said that Kashmiris from both sides Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Indian occupied Kashmir are also taking their story directly to the international community in order to be heard.

AJK President Sardar Masood added that it was India, and not Pakistan, that was responsible for the non-implementation of the UN Security Council resolutions.

According to Resolution 98 of December 23, 1952, both India and Pakistan were required to proportionately reduce their troops simultaneously. But India had declined to fulfil its international obligation and, instead, propped up a dubious constituent assembly to hold rigged elections, thereby violating the UN Security Council resolutions.
