TEHRAN (IQNA) – Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan on Sunday addressed the 56th Convention of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) through video link.

 

The premier briefed the American Muslims of what is currently happening in the Indian administered Kashmir where the Narendra Modi government has imposed curfew and has cut all the communication lines to suppress the protests against the abrogation of Article 370.

The Indian government on August 5 revoked the constitutional provision that provided autonomy to the people of Jammu and Kashmir.

Since then, there’s a complete blockade and the occupation forces have launched a military crackdown on the innocent people.

The Pakistani PM also said that Islam is a religion of peace and it has nothing to do with terrorism and the act of one person cannot be attributed to the whole community, the News reported.

He said the Muslim places of worship were also attacked in Europe.

Referring to the situation in Jammu and Kashmir, he said the Kashmiris are under siege for the last 28 days.

He urged the American Muslims to raise awareness about this critical situation in the region.
