Moreover, Shahbaz Sharif in his message on Kashmir Solidarity Day said that people of Occupied Kashmir were fighting for freedom and survival and they had written a new history with their blood to achieve the goal of self-determination.
"Pakistani government as well as the people have always raised their full voice against the worst violations of human rights and state sponsored brutalities in the Occupied Kashmir," he said, adding: "Kashmir is the unfinished agenda of independence of sub-continent. Kashmiris are rightful to ask this question to the world community that why are they being continuously deprived of their basic rights according to the charter of United Nations.
The just solution of core issue of Kashmir is essential to fully benefit from natural and human resources of the South Asia."
Shahbaz Sharif said that solution of Kashmir issue is essential in the light of UN resolutions for maintaining durable peace in the region. On this day, the whole nation is standing side-by-side with their Kashmiri brethren and I pay rich tributes to the brave struggle of the Kashmiri people for their inalienable right of self-determination, said Shahbaz Sharif. "Today, we will have to realize to our Kashmiri brethren that they are not alone in their struggle and Pakistan will continue diplomatic, moral and political support to the Kashmiris," he said.
