ISLAMABAD: Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) President Barrister Sultan Mahmood Chaudhry has said that Norway can play an important role in resolving the long running Kashmir dispute.

Barrister Sultan expressed these views while talking to former member of the Norwegian Council Amir Sheikh, who called on him here Saturday.

Referring to Norway’s cordial relationship with Pakistan and India, he said, “Being a mutual friend of both the countries Norway can play effective role as a mediator to seek a peaceful and lasting solution of the Kashmir problem”. He said that peace and security in South Asia was inescapably linked to a just settlement of the Kashmir imbroglio.

The AJK president, while briefing him about the prevailing political and human rights situation in the Indian occupied territory of Jammu and Kashmir, said that Norway having an excellent track record on human rights must play its much needed role to end bloodshed and violence in Kashmir.
