QUETTA: Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Abdul Quddus Bizenjo Monday urged the international community to take notice of Indian brutalities on the people of occupied Kashmir, who should be given the right to decide their future.

He said the people of Kashmir were fighting for their independence, thousands of young people, children, elders and women were sacrificing their lives and the day was not far when they would succeed in their struggle.

The chief minister, in his message on the Kashmir Solidarity Day, said the Indian forces were perpetrating atrocities on innocent Kashmiris and violating their rights. He said India had illegally occupied Kashmir and Pakistan had always supported the Kashmiri people in their struggle and would continue its support till their independence from the Indian yoke. He said “The hearts of the Pakistani people beat with those of their Kashmiri brothers.” Like other provinces, the people of Balochistan fully supported the Kashmiri brothers in their just struggle for their right to self-determination, he added.—APP
