Pakistan draws world attention to Kashmiri children’s sufferings  

by
Pakistan

ISLAMABAD:As the international community observed World Children’s Day on Thursday, Pakistan drew its attention to the plight of Kashmiri children living in an environment of “fear and intimidation” due to ongoing Indian atrocities, as over 100,000 had been orphaned.

“Living in a highly militarized territory, the trauma faced by the Kashmiri children is immense leaving indelible scars on their psychological and mental health.

Over 100,000 children have become orphans as a result of Indian oppression in the IIOJK (Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir). Their plight deserves international attention,” Foreign Office spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said at her weekly press briefing.

She called on the international community to stand up for the rights of Kashmiri children and demand an end to their suffering and reaffirmed Pakistan’s political, diplomatic, and moral support to Kashmiri people for a just and peaceful settlement of the Jammu and Kashmir dispute, under the UN Security Council resolutions.

She welcomed the latest report of the UN Special Committee to Investigate Israeli Practices, released last week describing Israel’s warfare practices in the occupied territories as acts of genocide.

She said Pakistan welcomed the condemnation of the ongoing smear campaigns and attacks against the UNRWA and called on all member states to fulfill their legal obligations to prevent and stop irregular violations of international law and hold Israel accountable.

The spokesperson expressed regret over the result of Wednesday’s vote at the UN Security Council and the inability to reach consensus on the resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.

  • Zuberi shared the remarkable encounter.
  • She revealed that he offered her a film during the Sharjah Cup.

Veteran Pakistani TV actor Laila Zuberi recently disclosed that she declined a film offer from legendary Bollywood filmmaker Raj Kapoor.

During an appearance on a private news channel’s talk show, Zuberi, a prominent figure in Pakistani television during the 1980s and 1990s, shared the remarkable encounter.

“Raj Kapoor offered me to work in his film when we met during the Sharjah Cup,” Zuberi revealed. The actor explained that she had met the renowned filmmaker while attending the event as a guest. The meeting became even more memorable when Kapoor asked for her autograph on their shared photographs.

“He said that they screen our dramas at their academy in Pune to teach students there,” Zuberi recalled, expressing pride in the acknowledgment of Pakistani television dramas at an international level.

When asked why she turned down the prestigious offer, Zuberi said, “It was a very proud moment for me, but I wanted to work for Pakistan only.”

Raj Kapoor, often referred to as “The Greatest Showman of Indian Cinema,” was one of Bollywood’s most influential filmmakers and actors. Zuberi’s decision reflects her dedication to promoting Pakistan’s television industry, even at the cost of such a rare opportunity.
