Pakistan lodges protest with India over ceasefire violation, killing of civilian

By

DC-ISLAMABAD-The Director-General (SA & SAARC), Dr. Mohammad Faisal, summoned the Indian Acting Deputy High Commissioner and condemned the unprovoked ceasefire violations by the Indian occupation forces along the Line of Control on 31st December 2018 in Athmuqam, Shahkot Sector which resulted in the shahadat of an innocent woman Asia Bibi w/o Muhammad Haroon, while 7 civilians including two women and three children sustained splinter injuries.

According to a statement issued by Foreign Office, the Indian forces along the Line of Control and the Working boundary are continuously targeting civilian populated areas with heavy weapons. In 2018, the Indian forces have carried out more than 2350 ceasefire violations along the Line of Control and the Working Boundary, resulting in the shahadats of 36 innocent civilians, while injuring 142 others. This unprecedented escalation in ceasefire violations by India is continuing from the year 2017 when the Indian forces committed 1970 ceasefire violations.

The deliberate targeting of civilian populated areas is indeed deplorable and contrary to human dignity, international human rights and humanitarian laws. The ceasefire violations by India are a threat to regional peace and security and may lead to a strategic miscalculation.

The Director General (SA & SAARC) urged the Indian side to respect the 2003 Ceasefire arrangement; investigate this and other incidents of ceasefire violations; instruct the Indian forces to respect the ceasefire, in letter and spirit and maintain peace on the LoC and the Working Boundary. He urged that the Indian side should permit UNMOGIP to play its mandated role as per the UN Security Council resolutions.

UNDP, s NDHR 2017 report and Dilemma of Youth of Pakistan

By
Amazing tweets and posts on social media are coming from the educated people especially from youth social media accounts about UNDP “Pakistan National Human Development Report PKNDHR 2017”. I would like to ask a simple question from the educated people that Did you read this report? I am sure that the answer would be “No”.  “This latest report has extremely important findings about Pakistani youth in particular. It would be unfortunate to drag this report into politics and make it controversial and some media Channels try their best to make controversies by using it for one party as publishing a report on comparison of four provinces from UNDP’s YDI report on exactly the day which Imran Khan had chosen to announce his 100-day programme was a work of art and pre-plan”. The purpose of every tweet and post is criticism on PTI lead Government in KP while comparing the KP Government with Punjab and Sindh.  I would like to share with you the story of UNDP repor...
