Pakistan and India have been on a tense standoff with an upsurge in ceasefire violations and bloodshed in occupied Kashmir. Pakistan has been calling for a halt to the use of brute force and pellet guns in the valley to bring the situation to normalcy.

Shaukat ali | 7 years ago | Reply Typical mindless arguments from Indians and fake westerners with actual Indian identities. The reality on the surface will never change. Those people in hijacked and kidnapped territory of Kashmir don't want to be part of India regardless of How many of their young you slaughter or how many of their women you rape with impunity. Pakistan doesn't need a lesson in pseudo intellectuality from criminals who kill for fun. This is not about Pakistan or Baluchistan or any other distraction you want to throw around. This is between government of India and the future independent state of Kashmir.
