Jamaat-e-Islami Chief Sirajul Haq has warned the government and Kashmiri leadership against the US and Indian designs on Kashmir. "Washington wants division of the disputed region on permanent basis while turning Pakistan into desert by blocking its waters from western rivers is the desire of New Delhi," said the JI chief while addressing a "Kashmir Solidarity Convention" in Model Town Lahore on Monday.
A large number of people from all walks of life attended the event which was organized by the JI Lahore chapter. Senator Siraj said those who thought US President Donald Trump mediation would offer a viable solution to the Kashmir issue were actually living fools' paradise. He said people of Kashmir and Pakistan would never accept any settlement of the Kashmir issue in violation of UN Resolutions.
The JI chief said that rulers were only making tall claims that they would fight for Kashmir till last bullet and last breath but practically they had not taken a single step in support of the besieged people. The incapability and coward ness of present and past governments was the only hurdle in solution of Kashmir issue, he added. "Mere admitting Tipu Sultan his hero is not enough but the prime minister should practically act like the great Muslim warrior," he said.
He expressed concern over reports about the shortage of food and medicines in the IOK. More than a month was passed in curfew and communication blockade coupled with worst human rights violation in held Kashmir but the government and internationally community were acting as silent spectators, he said.
The JI Emir said government should avoid creating any domestic issue until the solution of Kashmir issue. He called for banning all types of trade and transport relations with India. He demanded abolition of Simla Agreement and establishment of shadow parliament in AJK with full representation of the people of IOK and other Kashmiri Diasporas. He announced that JI would organize a Kashmir Solidarity March in Lahore on October 6 which will be attended by thousands of people. JI Central Punjab Emir Javed Kasuri, JI Lahore Emir Dr Zikrullah Mujahid, JI Information Secretary Qaisar Sharif also attended the convention.
