PM Imran Khan Addresses The Nation On The Kashmir Crisis - Calls Modi's Decision As A "Historical Blunder"


Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan addressed the nation informing and updating the Kashmir Issue.

Trying To Hold A Talk With India: 

PM Khan sat in the vicinity of the Prime Minister House and faced the citizens of Pakistan to talk about the on-going concerns surrounding Kashmir. Khan started off the speech by mentioning that he is going to talk about everything regarding the issue. This included what Pakistan has done until now, Kashmir’s situation, and the future plans. “This is important because God made us stand at a place where we have to decide on the Kashmir policy,” said Khan.

Then, building up he mentioned the goals of his government. He said, “With my rule, the first priority was to develop peace in the country so we could provide the people help with employment, trade, and everyday problems” he then went on to compare India and Pakistan by saying that both the countries suffer from similar problems. Luckily, Khan also brought in climate change and said that the melting glaciers will eventually affect the countries.

Now he talked about his frustration regarding trying to get a hold of India. He said, “We talked with India as everyone knows. We tried to solve it through dialogues” he further added, “But we faced problems from the very start. Whenever we tried to initiate a talk with India, they would start something new and look for ways to blame Pakistan of terrorism”

He also mentioned the anti-Pakistan campaigns going on during India’s elections. Hence, it committed Pakistan to step back. Khan said that he was surprised when a youngster blew himself to pieces causing the Pulwama attack. But that wasn’t the concern for India. Instead of trying to figure out what distressed the young person to compel himself to blow up, it placed blame on Pakistan. India is even pointing fingers towards Pakistan for the chaos in Kashmir. “When the election happened, they tried to bankrupt Pakistan. They convinced FATF to blacklist the country” said the Prime Minister. Therefore, Pakistan also decided that simply talking wouldn’t settle the issue anymore.

Difference Between India And Pakistan: 

Then, Khan went on to address how India is going against the United Nation resolutions, decisions of the High Court and Supreme Court, and their own founding fathers. In the end, he believes that India only protects the Hindus. Moreover, he also took the time to ponder over Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), which is an Indian right-wing organization. India is based on the policy of RSS which gives the Hindus an upper hand than the other minorities. According to Khan, Hindus developed this concept after going through Muslim rule and thinking that Muslims held them back.

The PM also suggested that they keep Hitler or fascists as role models. He said that recognizing this ideology, Quaid-e-Azam opened the eyes of the Muslims by saying that after the ‘British raj’, there is a possibility for Hindu domination as well. So the development of Pakistan is necessary.
There is a significant difference between the Pakistanis and Indians in respect to Imran Khan. He said, “Muslims cater to the Quran and to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)” Islam teaches of equality for all religions and races. And Khan emphasized that when we go against it then it is a stain on our Deen. However, for Indians when they go against their ideology it is actually the RSS’s ideology. This is the difference.  He continued on to say, “Modi made a mistake. His mistake can compel Kashmir to achieve freedom” possibly implying that Pakistan will play a role within it. Khan called Modi’s actions as a “historic blunder”.

“There are two things that they kept in mind,” said Khan. He called out to say that the first is that the Indian government wishes to cause enough damage to Kashmir to shut the citizens up. And the second thing is to convince the media that the reason behind this action is in connection with the terrorists infiltrating from Azad Kashmir.

Action Taken By Pakistan: 

Moving on with the PM Imran Khan's address to the nation, he also mentioned the different ways that Pakistan has successfully combated India's decision. He included the fact that Pakistan has been able to globalize the issue. And the United Nations council is starting to take action regarding Kashmir for the first time. He updated the embassies and strengthened the Pakistan army. “What do we do in the future? We make a decision on this issue. The entire nation needs to stand with the people of Kashmir” said Khan.

He promised the nation to take action and garner attention from international media. Moreover, Khan asked the citizens to participate in an event on Friday to leave their houses from 12:00 PM to 12:30 PM. The reason is to stand for the rights of the people of Kashmir and make sure that the issue receives as much attention as possible. He topped it off with, “Till the Kashmiris don’t achieve freedom, we will stand”
