Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi held a telephonic contact with Secretary General Organization for Islamic Cooperation Dr. Yousef Bin Ahmed Al Othaimeen and discussed increasing Indian aggression in Kashmir with him.

The Foreign Minister told him that brutal use of power against innocent Kashmiris by India is condemnable.

He said India is violating the international laws by subjecting the Kashmiris to serious human rights violations.

He apprised the OIC Secretary General that orders to Hindu Yatrees and foreign tourists to leave Kashmir are further adding concern.

Shah Mehmood Qureshi asked the OIC to take notice of this serious situation.

Dr. Yousef Bin Ahmed Al Othaimeen assured the foreign minister of taking notice of the situation and providing all out cooperation in this regard.

Earlier, chairing an emergency consultative meeting at the Foreign Office in Islamabad on Sunday, the Minister said Indian designs are an attempt to disrupt the regional peace.

The meeting attended by Foreign Secretary Sohail Mahmood and former foreign secretaries held consultation on increasing Indian aggression and tense situation in Occupied Kashmir.

It decided to highlight the gross human rights violations in Occupied Kashmir and Indian atrocities against Kashmiris at every international forum.
