Raja Farooq Haider Khan said Modi’s unilateral act to change status of the disputed Jammu Kashmir valley was against international law, UNSC Resolutions and valley’s occupation by Indian troops was illegal.

India would never maintain its illegal occupation and ultimately bow down to Kashmiris, he said and added that Modi could not win hearts and minds of Kashmiris and they would continue struggle for realization of their inalienable right to self determination.

The prime minister said Kashmir issue was the unfinished agenda of South Asia and its decision lies in the UNSC Resolutions. UK which was a party to division of Indian Sub-Continent must play its due role to settle the longstanding dispute once for all.
