Pakistan: PM Imran Khan warns PoK residents against crossing LoC

New Delhi : Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Saturday asked the residents of PoK to not cross the Line of Control after India revoked the special status of the state two months back.

"I understand the anguish of the Kashmiris seeing their fellow Kashmiris in Jammu and Kashmir.... Anyone crossing the LoC to provide humanitarian aid or support for Kashmiri struggle will play into the hands of the Indian narrative," Imran Khan said in a tweet.

His advice came days after tens of hundreds of emotionally charged Kashmiris from different parts of PoK set out in vehicular and motorcycle rallies to Muzaffarabad on the call of Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front, the Dawn reported.

India had been repeatedly slamming PM Imran Khan for making irresponsible comments on the India's decision to revoke Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir.

In New Delhi, Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Raveesh Kumar on Friday said the comments made by Khan do not behove the post he holds.

“I think he is not unaware of how international relations are conducted. On that basis, he gives such statements. He had given an open call for Jihad against India. This is not a normal behaviour,” Mr. Kumar said.
