Modi to repent for decades if made mischief: Siraj

LAHORE: Jamaat-e-Islami ameer Senator Sirajul Haq said if Indian Prime Minister Modi tried to escalate tension on the border to rescue his friends in Pakistan, he would get a strong reply that would make him repent for decades.

He was talking to residents of Mansoora at an Iftar-dinner on Saturday. Sirajul Haq said India did not want a government in Islamabad that would support Kashmiris' freedom movement. He said there was constant tension on Pak-India border and the LoC due to Indian firing, and innocent citizens were being martyred every day. He said New Delhi was trying to divert the attention of the Pakistani nation from the corruption cases going on against the Pakistani rulers as Modi could go to any extent to rescue his friends.

However, he said, if the world community did not attend to the Kashmir situation, the clouds of war would continue hovering over the region. The JI chief said that their movement against corruption was nearing success and the day was not far off when the plunderers of the public money would have to account for every penny they had looted and would be seen behind the bars.

Sirajul Haq said Indian occupation forces were continuing brutalities in Held Kashmir but the rulers in Islamabad were silent spectators.  He said India could not crush the Kashmiris freedom movement and the third generation of the Kashmiris was now braving hostilities and torture while the world at large remained totally indifferent.
