Chairman of Anjuman Minhaj-e-Rasool, Moulana Syed Athar Hussain Dehlavi, today urged the Central government to bring a resolution reiterating 1994 Parliament declaration that PoK and Gilgit-Baltistan are part of India.
"The GoI should bring a resolution in this session of the Parliament and unanimously pass it reiterating its stand that Jammu and Kashmir is integral part of India, including PoK and Gilgit-Baltistan," he told reporters here.
He said passing the resolution would foil the designs of Pakistan to make Gilgit-Baltistan its province.
Both Houses of the Parliament had unanimously adopted a resolution on February 22, 1994, emphasising that Jammu and Kashmir was an integral part of India, and that Pakistan must vacate parts of the state under its occupation.
"It is time to pass the resolution of 1994 again and show our resolve on PoK Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir," he said.
The Cleric also strongly batted for declaring Pakistan a terrorist state by using the platform of the SAARC.
"Pak, which is the biggest launching pad of terrorism, should be declared as terrorist state. There is no need to hold talks with Pakistan," he said.
He accused Pakistan of instigating the youths in Kashmir to trigger violence in the Valley and disrupt the works of development.
