Islamabad: (Monday, February 6, 2012) President of Pakistan, Asif Ali Zardari in his message to the nation on Kashmir Day, yesterday, said that Pakistan stand with its brethren striving for their freedom and realization of their
fundamental rights and inalienable rights.
He said, “For over six decades, the Kashmiri people have rendered countless sacrifices for upholding their dignity and freedom, pleading for equity and justice and the fulfillment of the promise for the effective exercise of their
right to self-determination, as envisaged in the relevant UN resolutions.
It is indeed imperative that the noble principles and values, that underpin the just Kashmiri cause, are upheld and supported by all justice and freedom-loving peoples across the world. It is also important that the fundamental
human rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir are respected and promoted.”
Referring to the late developments in which the Kashmir Independence Movement has emerged as a political movement, and has gotten rid of its image as an armed movement, the President of Pakistan said, “In recent years, the peaceful
struggle of the people of Jammu and Kashmir has gained in strength and intensity. A new generation of the Kashmiris, including men, women and children, continue to wage a heroic struggle for the realization of their fundamental rights.”
Concluding his message, President Zardari expressed Pakistan’s resolve to stand by its Kashmiri brethren and to extend them all the political support that they need. He said, “While seeking a peaceful settlement of Jammu and Kashmir
dispute, Pakistan will continue to express its complete solidarity with the Kashmiris and extend its fullest political, moral and diplomatic support to their just cause.”
