ISLAMABAD – Pakistan strongly condemned the reported shutting down of DarulUloom Khadija tul Kubra, an educational institute in Illegally IndianOccupied Jammu and Kashmir.
The Indian occupation forces gate-crashed Darul Uloom on Friday, insultedand maltreated the female students and forcefully evicted them beforesealing the educational institution, said Foreign Office in a statement.
This illegal act is a fresh reflection of how the Indian occupation forcesare trampling on and making a mockery of the fundamental rights of Kashmirigirls seeking education. It also points towards growing Islamophobia, aphenomenon which is on the surge not only in Indian Illegally OccupiedJammu & Kashmir (IIOJK) but also in India.
Denying Muslim girls access to education, may that be in IIOJK or inKarnataka, is a new low under a far-rightHindutva-inspired regime in India.
Deafening silence of the BJP leadership and absence of discernible actionagainst ‘Hindutva’ proponents must send alarm bells across theinternational community about the gross and systematic human rightsviolations being perpetrated by India.
