Pak PM questions world community’s silence on Kashmir situation

KARACHI: Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan once again questioned the world’s silence on Kashmir situation, as per leading news agency reports.

Khan, on Thursday chastised world leaders’s silence and warned of “repercussions” if a war breaks out then the world community will be responsible.

“In Indian-Occupied Kashmir, 12 days of curfew, presence of extra troops in an already heavily militarised occupied territory… complete communication blackout — with the example of (Prime Minister Narendra) Modi’s earlier ethnic cleansing of Muslims in Gujarat,” Khan say via Twitter.

“Will (the) world silently witness another Srebrenica-type massacre and ethnic cleansing of Muslims in IoK,” he asked. “I want to warn the international community that if it allows this to happen, it will have severe repercussions and reactions in the Muslim world, setting off radicalisation and cycles of violence.”

Khan made the comments on Wednesday in “Azad Jammu and Kashmir” (AJK) on the day of Pakistan’s independence to express “solidarity with the Kashmiris”.

‘Black Day’

Pakistan on Thursday observed India’s Independence Day as “Black Day” following New Delhi’s move to axed the Article 370 granting special status to Jammu and Kashmir.
