Lieutenant General, retired, Naeem Khalid Lodhi (Defense Analyst): 

Incumbent government has internationalized the Kashmir issue in an unprecedented manner. The United Nations General Assembly is the most appropriate diplomatic platform to highlight Kashmir issue. Pakistan has already sensitized the entire international community about human rights violations in Indian Occupied Kashmir. No diplomatic effort of Pakistan has positively been reciprocated by India. The criminal silence of world powers is further escalating tensions in region. Pakistan will have to take more aggressive measures to rescue the people of Kashmir.  India has failed in its efforts to suppress voice of the people of Kashmir through use of brute force.
