ISLAMABAD: Pakistan's government has made innumerable pledges to its occupied region of Kashmir (PoK) in the past but never fulfilled any.

The promise to give it complete "freedom" from its clutches, to develop infrastructure, education and healthcare facilities and so on., have always ended in a sham.

The same Pakistan is now busy trying to sell Kashmiris in India the ideal of "independence and self-determination," even as its own so-called "Azad Jammu-Kashmir" region is parading the streets at home and yelling, "We want freedom, Pakistan Army go back."

It is well known that the government of Pakistan has disregarded the fundamental human rights of the occupied Kashmir region. The purpose of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), which is still being defended to the world through a web of lies and deceit, is to win sympathy for a cause.

Since the beginning, "Azad Kashmir" has solely contained the word "Azad." The rest of it is a string of misfortunes, neglect, and oppression. The terrible cycle of drug misuse, unemployment, and poverty is commonplace here. 90% of suicides in Pakistan are blamed on the colonised state of Gilgit-Baltistan, which is referred to as the "suicide capital" of Pakistan.

Pakistan's ISI has implemented a strategy to render the young of PoK ineffective by driving them into a drug misuse spiral out of concern that they could foil its wicked agenda.

Pakistan's economy is in crisis.
