India have to take a realistic decision on Kashmir: Fawad Chaudhry

ISLAMABAD: Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry has said that the Indian leaders should understand that they have to take a realistic decision on the issue of Kashmir.

Addressing a seminar of the All Parties Parliamentary Kashmir Group in Islamabad information minister said that Prime Minister Imran Khan and the military want solution of the Kashmir question. “Peace will benefit everyone”, Mr. Chaudhry said, adding” solution of Kashmir problem is inevitable”.

Fawad Chaudhry said India would have to take a realistic decision over Kashmir as better relations between Pakistan and India are in the best interest of the both countries. “We have fought three wars, what India achieved from (these wars).

India wants to continue its hegemony in Kashmir, the minister said. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has just announced that his government will give a package of billions of rupees to Occupied Kashmir but independence cannot be bought with money, Chaudhry said.

The information minister said that the issue of Kashmir is above any political affiliation

He said that Indian allegations that Pakistan was fomenting unrest in Kashmir are baseless and the Indian government had only adopted this viewpoint because it was failed to crush the freedom struggle in the territory.

The path to good relations with India becomes more difficult in view of the atrocious conditions in occupied Kashmir, the information minister added.

If Pakistani elderly self-distance infections could drop 30%: study

If we do nothing, COVID-19 could infect 206 million Pakistanis and kill 691,000. This is the estimation of researchers from the Imperial College London COVID-19 Response Team who have published country-wise projections in a March 26 report ‘ The Global Impact of COVID-19 and Strategies for Mitigation and Suppression ’ Furthermore, using an infection fatality rate from China, this means 4.4 million Pakistanis would require hospitalisation and from among those, 917,000 individuals would require critical care. Pakistan has a population of 220 million people. The research is based on the infection fatality rate from China, country health care system capacities and that one person with coronavirus is likely to infect 3 others.
