Well, I hadnât denied the democratic right of the Kashmiris. I just meant that itâs not just the humanitarian or religious aspects rather there are some other interests also that make a nation interfere in some other countryâs affairs and so do Pakistan has. And by sharing the story of an Indian army man I wasnât to conclude that Pakistan should immediately withdraw its forces from Kashmir and leave the region at the mercy of the Indian forces. What I meant actually; was to share the number of Pakistani-trained mujahedeen being killed or arrested by the enemy. I mean its ok; if someone submits himself voluntarily to this cause. But there is no need to kidnap someone to train. OK, I agree this may be noble cause to help your Muslim brother across the border but at the same time I donât find it fair to kidnap people for this cause. Can you imagine, how difficult and painful the situation would it be for old parents, the siblings and other family members of someone to search for the missing person? This is what I donât agree with!!!
And BTW Iâm not going to contest for the seat of Minister, CM, PM or President so that I may get any sort of benefit by making such âirresponsible statementsâ. Had we been interested in such seats, we wonât have let this seat gone, in the first place. These ministries are nothing new for us. The Grandfather of my grandfather was a Minister but we just left this field because we canât play a double game for our personal interests. It may not always be feasible to disclose the sources of information but let me make one thing very much clear that I donât have any personal ill-will for MMA. If Iâve any differences with them, they are just over some ideologies and that should not be taken to mean that Iâm an âenlightened moderateâ supporting all the policies of the govt.
***If someone wants to believe in my words, he/she can and if someone doesnât want, I wonât force him/her. And similarly I wonât like to be forced to disclose âeach and every source of informationâ because no rule of law bounds me to do soâ¦!!!
