BAHAWALPUR, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 4th Feb, 2025) Commissioner Musarrat Jabeen has said that Kashmir is the jugular vein of Pakistan and all members of society at all levels should raise the voice for the freedom struggle of Kashmiris at the global level.

Chairperson of the Department of Pakistan Studies, Dr. Rubina Yasmin, in her welcome address, said that academic work is being done on high-level research papers related to the Kashmir issue in the university along with teaching. Prof. Dr. Musawar Hussain Bukhari, Chairman of the Department of Political Science, said that in today’s world, human rights violations should be brought to every international forum to highlight the Kashmir issue. The democratic powers of the world should be convinced about the right of Kashmiris to plebiscite. On the other hand, the geographical position of Kashmir is of utmost importance for Pakistan’s strong economy, protection of water resources and the success of CPEC. An economically strong Pakistan can play a vital role for the freedom of Kashmiris, he added.
