The expression of solidarity is the expression of sympathy. We want to open a ‘channel of discussion’ between all stakeholders on the Kashmir issue so that this issue can be resolved through diplomacy. The voice of Kashmiris will be conveyed to the Islamic world and the international community will also be taken on board in this regard. Kashmir is a part of OIC and it is our responsibility to resolve the Kashmir issue peacefully and according to the wishes of Kashmiris.
These views were expressed by the OIC Secretary General while talking to the media after meeting the President Azad Jammu and Kashmir Barrister Sultan Mehmood Chaudhry and the Prime Minister of the Independent State of Jammu and Kashmir Sardar Tanveer Ilyas Khan at the President’s House in Muzaffarabad.

He said that the world needs to be told more about human rights violations in Occupied Kashmir. Answering a question, the Secretary-General said that being the representative of Islamic countries, it is our responsibility to highlight the Kashmir issue and solve it. We will solve this problem together with friendly countries so that peace and order can be established in the region. He said that we have asked all the member countries to take a better decision for a lasting solution to the Kashmir problem and instead of talking Believe in action.
