He told the media that Indian troops were killing innocent Kashmiris on a daily basis in the occupied territory and urged the United Nations and other international human rights organizations to help stop Indian brutalities in Kashmir and settle the long-pending dispute according to the resolutions of the world body and aspirations of the Kashmiri people.
Salman Khan further said that Kashmir was a core issue and without its amicable settlement, peace in the region was impossible.
