Speaking on this occasion, Governor Sarwar said that US President Donald Trump remains in constant liaison with Prime Minister Imran Khan on the issues pertaining to the region and Pakistan that is why the relations between Pakistan and America are strong and exemplary.

He said that Kashmir is the biggest issue of the region for which America has also offered mediation but unfortunately, India’s stubbornness and atrocities in occupied Kashmir have increased to alarming level. Kashmir issue must be resolved in accordance with the UN resolutions to ensure durable peace in the region, he added. Later on, Sarwar participated in the ceremony regarding ‘Million Signature Campaign’ under Punjab Kashmir Committee and also signed to show solidarity with the people of occupied Kashmir.

Addressing the ceremony, the governor said that Pakistan as usual is standing with Kashmiris today and we are launching this signature campaign in all the universities in Punjab so as to give a message to the world community that every child of Pakistan is with Kashmiris and no sacrifice will be denied for the freedom of people of Indian Occupied Kashmir.

He said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan, government is continuing with the mission of public service.
