ISLAMABAD: Pakistan needs to reform itself and repair its image abroad for effectively advocating Kashmir’s freedom struggle, which requires more than an array of inconsequential statements and resolutions from Islamabad, the Strategic Vision Institute (SVI) suggested in a set of recommendations on supporting the latest uprising in Indian Occupied Valley. The recommendations were presented at the conclusion of a round table discussion participated by retired diplomats, representatives of think tanks, academics, and journalists. The roundtable had been convened by SVI, an Islamabad based think tank, in the backdrop of the recent wave of protests in the held Kashmir that started on July 9. Over 40 people have been killed so far and another about 2,000 injured as Indian security forces employed excessive use of force to quell the protests.
