NEW YORK, Sep 19 (APP):Prime Minister Imran Khan’s visit upcoming visit to New York as leader of the Pakistan delegation to the 74th session of the UN General Assembly would be “very Kashmir centric” revolving around India’s decision last month to annex the disputed state and the ongoing human rights abuses there, his senior aide has said.

Speaking to Newsweek, a mass-circulation American magazine, Sayed Zulfikar Abbas Bukhari, special assistant to the prime minister for overseas Pakistanis and human resource development, said PM Khan’s goal was to raise awareness about “the enocide and the ethnic cleansing going on” in Indian occupied Kashmir. He said Pakistan has had success in gaining support at the international level, with nations like China, Turkey, Malaysia and Iran speaking out on the issue.
