But it is shocking that the government did not oppose India’s non-permanent seat in the United Nations Security Council. Pakistan should have started lobbying a year ago. Even then we were all discussing what we all could do to help Kashmiris and had warned the federal government that this was the time to change our policy but no heed was paid to our point of view on the issue. The government should have taken a stand for Kashmir by opposing India’s seat,” she said.
Commenting on the new domicile rule in India, she said that “under the Nazi government of Modi, the new domicile law allows Indian citizens having lived in Jammu and Kashmir for 15 years to claim a “domicile certificate” for residency benefits.
She said that up to 25,000 people had been granted domicile certificates raising fears of the demographic change in Kashmir. “There is a Nazi government there and here we have the Niazi government which did not even oppose India’s seat in the UN.
“Does this house not agree that India has gone far ahead of any conventions, laws, moral obligation as a nation? Of course, it has. So, why are we doing regular, conventional diplomacy when this house has repeatedly requested and advised this government in our collective best interests and in the best interests of Kashmir not to do that,” questioned the Senator.
