ISLAMABAD- Prime Minister Imran Khan has said inhuman military siege and communication blockade in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K) ever since illegal and unilateral actions of 5th August last year are a crime against humanity.
In a message on Youm-e-Istehsal, he said this has destroyed has destroyed lives, crippled livelihoods, and imperiled the very identity of the people of IIOJ&K.
The Prime Minister said eight million Kashmiris have been made prisoners in their own homes. Their communication with the outside world has been deliberately revoked to hide the scale of human rights violations being perpetrated against them by the Indian occupation forces. Young men are being extra judicially martyred in fake encounters and so-called cordon and search operations, almost on a daily basis, while the real Kashmiri political leadership remains incarcerated.
Imran Khan said the extremist and expansionist BJP-RSS combine, represented by the current Indian Government, is unabashedly pushing the 'Hindutva' agenda. He said It is seeking to change the demographic structure of the region and turn its Muslim majority into a minority in blatant violation of relevant UN Security Council Resolutions and international laws, particularly the 4th Geneva Convention.
