WASHINGTON: Pakistani Ambassador to the United States, Asad Majeed Khan has said that the international community, particularly the US, cannot let India get away with its brutal oppression in Indian Occupied Kashmir.
Asad Majeed Khan in his article published in the ‘Newsweek’, said that Kashmir today is a burden on the conscience of the international community. “The world cannot remain a bystander while systematic attempts are underway to deprive Kashmiris of their identity as well as fundamental rights through stealth and deceit,” he said.

“The world must join the United Nations and other international human rights organizations in demanding an end to India’s egregious human rights violations in Kashmir,” he added.
He further said that Kashmir looks to America for moral leadership. “Pakistan and the United States have been partners for peace and prosperity. Together, we have fought many a battle together, notching up victories and successes under our belt,” he asserted.
“Ours is a partnership rooted in common interests and informed by shared values. Today, those values are under assault in Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir,” he stated.
According to him, India has recently promulgated an ordinance to entice tens of thousands of Indians to buy Kashmiri land and take Kashmiri jobs.
“India wants to change Kashmir’s demographics by force, turning its majority into a minority,” Khan wrote. He clearly stated that Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) wants to remake India into a Hindu Rashtra (a Hindu nation).
