The PM further said that he is puzzled by the international media who is continuing to give headline coverage to Hong Kong protests but is ignoring dire human rights crisis in occupied Kashmir. He added that IoK is an internationally recognised disputed territory illegally annexed by India with 900k troops imposing a siege on eight million Kashmiris.
"In IOJK 100k Kashmiris have been killed over 30 years fighting for their right to self determination as committed to them by the international community through United Nation Security Council resolutions," the PM added.
