MIRPUR (AJK): Sep 29 (APP):Azad Jammu & Kashmir President Sardar Masood Khan, Sunday called upon the US Congress to hold a debate and pass a resolution on the serious situation in the Indian Occupied Kashmir.
Addressing a reception meeting in US city of Houston he said that the Pakistani-Americans and Kashmiri-Americans, in support of the Congressman and Senators who had raised their voice in support of Kashmiris, should get to Washington D.C to persuade the US Congress to give diplomatic and political support for an end to the ongoing killings, incarcerations and torture in Kashmir.
“End to killings and persecution is first priority; but the US Congress should also put its weight behind efforts to reverse the unlawful steps India took on August 5, 2019 to subvert the status of Jammu and Kashmir whose political status has to be decided in accordance with the wishes of its people”, he said, according to an official statement issued by AJK Presidential secretariat on Sunday.
