ISLAMABAD: Jamaat-e-Islami chief Sirajul Haq has said that the Kashmiris are laying down their lives for Pakistan but Pakistani rulers have not framed a state policy on Kashmir so far. Addressing the annual general body of the JI on Sunday, he said that Kashmiris had proved their mettle against Indian atrocities and soon they would get freedom. He said that every Pakistani ruler who had “betrayed” the Kashmiris could not escape an evil end. “Kashmir is the jugular vein of Pakistan, but the Kashmiris could not win freedom so far only due to weak policies of Islamabad,” he alleged. Sirajul Haq said the entire non Muslim world was untied under the US umbrella against the Muslims. He said that those conspiring against the Ummah would have to face serious consequences. JI Azad Jammu and Kashmir chapter chief Dr Khalid Mehmud, Mutahida Jehad Council Chairman Syed Salahud Din and Hurriat Conference Convener Ghulam Muhammad Safi also spoke on the occasion.
