Geneva (Switzerland) March 15, 2021 (ANI): Thousands of Kashmiris have died in a proxy war orchestrated by Pakistan and they continue to suffer due to terrorist groups patronized by Pakistan military establishment, said the chief of the European Foundation for South Asian Studies during a general debate at 46th session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva on Monday. Junaid, who himself a Kashmiri from Srinagar said that it was Pakistan that invaded and divided his Homeland in 1947 and shut the door to independence for Kashmiris in 1949. Junaid told the United Nations that unless Prime Minister Imran Khan is held accountable for his words and pressed to give independence to Pakistan occupied Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan, parts of the land which Pakistan occupies; the trivialization of the Jammu & Kashmir issue will only be further encouraged.
