Gujranwala [Pakistan], April 7 (ANI): Hafiz Saeed's banned terror outfit, the Jamaat-ud-Daawa (JuD), has pledged to liberate Kashmir and destroy India at a protest demonstration held here recently.

It was organized to express solidarity with the people of Kashmir following the killing of militants by Indian security forces in encounters in Shopian and Anantnag districts of Indian-administered Kashmir.

The rally was jointly organized by the JuD and the Jammu Kashmir Movement (JKM). Participants shouted anti-India and pro-Kashmir slogans at the venue.

Addressing the gathering, Ahsanullah Muntazir, the Amir of the JuD said, "We have to work for liberation of Kashmir and destruction of India."

The Jamaat-ud-Dawa has been openly organizing anti-India protests in spite of bans imposed by Pakistan, the United Nations and other Western countries.

Ahsanullah said, "We (JuD) are with Kashmiris and are ready to sacrifice our lives and property on the call of Professor Hafiz Mohammad Saeed. Kashmir is likely to be liberated soon and India will be wiped out from the map of the world."

He added, "Today, Jews in the world wish that peace must prevail in the world, Christians are also announcing that peace must prevail in the world, Hindus are also saying that peace must prevail in the world. They pray for their regions only and are insensitive to the atrocities being committed against Muslims in various countries."

"Today, we pledge to protect this land from all these 'fitnas' (conflicts) and to wage a 'Jehad' against infidels, said Ahsanullah.

India has accused Pakistan of providing support to militants and spreading religious hatred in Jammu and Kashmir.

It is a well known fact that Pakistan is running many terror camps in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and providing training and arms to carry out attacks on Indian security forces in the Kashmir Valley. (ANI)
