Imran’s comments came in a tweet on Wednesday morning in which he linked a report by Middle East Eye on a senior Indian diplomat’s controversial remarks at an event in the United States.
As per the report, Sandeep Chakravorty, the Indian consul general in New York, told “Kashmiri Hindus (known as Kashmiri Pandits) and Indian nationals that New Delhi will build settlements modelled after Israel for the return of the Hindu population to Kashmir.”
He asked those present “to give the Indian government some time to implement its plans in the occupied valley”.
