Srinagar, May 17: Asserting that there is no support left for Pakistan in Kashmir, Member Parliament Asaduddin Owaisi on Saturday said that the Government of India (GoI) should utilize the opportunity and adopt Kashmiris.
In an interview, Owaisi, who also heads the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) said that after April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, “there was maatam (mourning) in every Kashmiri household.”
“Kashmiris should get their rights, students shouldn’t be attacked in other parts of the country. All this should be done. We shouldn’t lose this opportunity. Don’t leave the Kashmiris to their fate. Adopt them,” Owaisi said.
Describing spontaneous and organic protests in Kashmir after the Pahalgam terror attack as a clear message to Pakistan and terrorists, Owaisi said, “In fact, it is a historic opportunity for the government, for Prime Minister Modi, for Home Minister Amit Shah. They should use this opportunity properly. You should definitely confront Pakistan but you should also adopt Kashmiris.”
He said it is the unwritten ideology of Pakistan to foment instability and communal divide in India and to thwart its economic growth. And it has been doing so since it sent tribal invaders into Jammu and Kashmir after India’s independence. “You can never trust Pakistan as long as the Pakistani deep state, Pakistani ISI, Pakistani military’s objective is to destabilise Bharat,” the AIMIM leader said.
