Advisor to the Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Firdous Ashiq Awan stated on Tuesday that the “secular and democratic India” has been destroyed by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

In a series of tweets, Firdous voiced her concern for the treatment of Kashmiri’s by Indian armed forces during the sacred festival of Eid.

 



She added that if Modi’s government does not abandon the Hindutva way of thinking – an ideology seeking to establish the hegemony of Hindus and the Hindu way of life – there may be a serious threat to the peace in the region.

She also said that the Kashmir issue would only be resolved in light of the United Nations (UN) resolutions.

 





The advisor added that no oppression, no curfew, no handcuffs and no prison could make Kashmiris slaves of India and that the sun of freedom would soon rise in Kashmir.

Firdous stated that Pakistanis share the joy and sorrow of the Kashmiris.

“Preventing Kashmiris from performing their religious rituals on Eid day proves that India is occupying Kashmir with austerity,” she added.
