Imran Khan had emerged as a real spokesman for the Kashmiris, who had announced to take responsibility to raise voice for them and fight their case across the globe as their ambassador.

Dr Firdous said India could not suppress the indigenous movement of Kashmiris, for their right to self-determination in line with the resolutions passed by the United Nations Security Council, through force.

She said the prime minister, during his first year in power, had achieved national stability and by the grace of Allah Almighty next year Pakistan would be on sustainable path of progress.

Imran Khan, being a soldier of Founder of Pakistan Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, was taking the country forward as per his (Quaid's) vision to develop a society where everyone could enjoy equal rights and have access to justice under a system of rule of law.

The special assistant said August 14 was the day to renew pledge and pay tribute to the Quaid-e-Azam, who freed the Muslims living under the colonial system of the Indian sub-continent without rights like justice and equality.
