ANKARA: Ambassador of Pakistan to Turkey Syrus Sajjad Qazi visited the Turkish Grand National Assembly (TGNA) and discussed a range of bilateral issues with Turkish parliamentarians.
The ambassador separately called on the Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Human Rights Inquiry Mr Hakan Cavosoglu and the Chairman of Turkey-Pakistan Inter-Parliamentary Friendship Group Mr Ali Sahin.
The ambassador briefed the two eminent Turkish Parliamentarians on the latest human rights and humanitarian situation in the Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
Ambassador Qazi drew their attention towards India’s illegal, unilateral and provocative measures aimed at changing the disputed status of Jammu & Kashmir, altering its demographic composition and depriving the Kashmiris of their fundamental rights including the right to self-determination.

He emphasised that Indian actions were not only a blatant violation of the relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions on Jammu & Kashmir as well as the international law, but also posed a direct threat to the peace and security of South Asia and the broader region.
Expressing his deep concern at the grave human rights and humanitarian situation in the Indian Occupied Kashmir, Ambassador Qazi said that Kashmiris living under the Indian occupation were enduring a complete blockade for nearly a year now.
Gross violations of human rights continued unabated and in the recent months, Indian occupation forces had martyred dozens of innocent Kashmiris in fake encounters and extra-judicial killings.
