Meanwhile, President of Kashmir European Alliance Sardar Pervez Mehmood in a statement cautioned against the intensive militarism in South Asia.
He said, “Modern India has no respect for international law, UN resolutions or international agreements. India prides itself on being a culture and civilisation that developed and embodied the age of enlightenment, norms and obligations.”
But India, he added, is no longer holding its promises despite all the fine talk about the imperative of democracy, human rights and freedom.
