MAY 28 (STC): Member of Parliament (MP) and chief of All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) Asaduddin Owaisi has asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah to “adopt Kashmiris”. He wants them to take advantage of the spontaneous protests in Kashmir against Pakistan after the deadly Pahalgam terror attack.
“The protests of Kashmiris means that they showed there was no support for Pakistan left in the region,” said Asaduddin Owaisi.
In an interview to Press Trust of India (PTI), Asaduddin Owaisi said PM Modi and Amit Shah should confront Pakistan and adopt Kashmiris.
He called , it is a historic opportunity for the government, for Prime Minister Modi, for Home Minister Amit Shah. “They should use this opportunity properly. You should definitely confront Pakistan but you should also adopt Kashmiris,” he said.
Owaisi said that after the April 22 terror attack in Baisaran Valley of Pahalgam, “there was maatam [mourning] in every Kashmiri household”.
Elaborating his “adopt Kashmiris” remark, Owaisi said the Central government should ensure there are no attacks on Kashmiris. He said they should ensure that there are no human rights abuses.
“All this should be done. We shouldn’t lose this opportunity. Don’t leave the Kashmiris to their fate. Adopt them,” he said.
He said it is the unwritten ideology of Pakistan to foment instability and communal divide in India and to thwart its economic growth. And it has been doing so since it sent tribal invaders into Jammu and Kashmir after India’s independence.
“You can never trust Pakistan as long as the Pakistani deep state, Pakistani ISI, Pakistani military’s objective is to destabilise Bharat,” the AIMIM leader said.
