Srinagar: As Pakistanis observe the birth anniversary of their Founding Father, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Kashmiris are also recalling his unwavering commitment to their just cause, rooted in the deep religious, historical and cultural ties that bind the two peoples and shape their shared destiny.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Quaid-e-Azam had rightly described Jammu and Kashmir as Pakistan’s jugular vein and consistently championed the Kashmiri struggle for freedom even before the creation of Pakistan.
The Quaid’s vision placed justice for Kashmiri Muslims at the core of the Pakistan Movement, as he remained resolute in his efforts to free Kashmir from Indian domination, regardless of the cost. Observers say his foresight continues to guide the Kashmiri freedom struggle, which remains an inseparable extension of the Two-Nation Theory and the Pakistan Movement, despite decades of repression and denial of Kashmiris’ inalienable right to self-determination.
Justice for Kashmiri Muslims remained central to his political vision, and he made sustained and principled efforts to free Kashmir from Indian domination. Quaid-e-Azam firmly believed that Muslims of the subcontinent required a separate homeland to safeguard their political, economic and religious future, a warning that history has repeatedly validated.
The ongoing freedom struggle in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir is an inseparable extension of the Pakistan Movement. The fascist and exclusionary policies of the Modi regime continue to vindicate Quaid-e-Azam’s foresight and reinforce the ideological foundations of Kashmiri resistance.
The slogan “Kashmir Baney Ga Pakistan” reflects the collective aspiration of Kashmiri Muslims, while Pakistan has consistently led diplomatic and moral efforts at international forums to highlight the suffering of Kashmiris and press for a just resolution of the dispute in line with UN resolutions and the wishes of the Kashmiri people.
