“The Kashmir cell will work 24 hours a day and we are expecting good results from it,” said the foreign minister optimistically.
Qureshi also said that the meeting will discuss ways through which Pakistan can highlight the Kashmir issue on international platforms.
“After taking a go-ahead from Prime Minister Imran Khan, opposition’s Mushahid Hussain Syed, Sirajul Haq and Naveed Qamar, have also been invited to the session. We will hear their point of views on Kashmir,” he continues.
Last month, Pakistan decided to intensify its lobbying efforts to effectively highlight the prevailing situation in occupied Kashmir.
Kashmir cells will be established in Pakistan's embassies in the key capitals. A focal person in each of these embassies will ensure a coordinated effort.
