Chaudhary Fawad Hussain says Kashmiris have a bond of blood and soul with Pakistan and not that of land only.
Addressing a Kashmir Conference in Islamabad on Friday, he said our blood spills with Kashmiris.
The Minister said India sees the Kashmir issue from the perspective of territory only as it has no deep links with the area. He said India is becoming a laughing stock of the world due to its claims of a secular democracy while denying human rights to Kashmiris.
The Minister said the whole world is looking at the excessive human rights abuses being perpetrated in occupied Kashmir.
He said the leadership of both Azad Kashmir and Occupied Kashmir are becoming one in their stance that India is crushing the voice of freedom through oppression.
Chaudhry Fawad Hussain said current government is sincere in its Kashmir cause and Pakistan will continue its moral, diplomatic and political support to its Kashmiri brethren for the realization of their right to self-determination.
