Not long before Kashmir becomes part of Pakistan: Nawaz

Prime minister lauds PML-N supporters for rejecting negative politics in AJK elections

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has said the Indian-occupied Kashmir will soon become a part of Pakistan.

“The day is not far when Jammu & Kashmir will become Pakistan. No one can stop freedom movement in occupied Kashmir,” the prime minister said while addressing a rally in Muzaffarabad after the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) emerged as the front-runner in Azad Jammu & Kashmir.

The prime minister thanked his party supporters for “rejecting negative politics and making the PML-N victorious in AJK polls".



He said the culture of negative politics should end.

"I am not accusing anyone nor am I using bad language against anyone," said the PM. “I did not respond to any negative talk of my opponents because I think success in politics does not lie in staging dharnas but in doing something [for the people].”

"Siyasat main kamyabi dharnay se nahi, kuch kerne se aati and hai" ...... A poetic phrase. Says it all 😀

Promises development

Promising rapid progress in the valley, Nawaz said a network of motorways, roads and highways will be laid down in the AJK over the next five years.

Taking a jibe at Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan, the prime minister said those who talk about running anti-government movement could only secured two seats in AJK.

“Their [anti-government] will not be any different from their election result.”

He urged the people of AJK not to forget the sacrifices of innocent Kashmiris on the other side of the border.

“While we celebrate today we must not forget the sacrifices of those who are facing the worst violations of human rights in the Indian occupied Kashmir.”
