Minister for SAFRON and Narcotics Control Shehryar Khan Afridi has said that the world peace faces a new threat from the Hindu fundamentalists who are involved in genocide of minorities in India to create a ‘Greater India’.
Addressing the British lawmakers and scholars in London, Afridi said it will be a folly to see the annexation of Kashmir on gunpoint by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi as an isolated move. “This is a bigger plot designed by Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) who are involved in targeted attacks on Christians, Muslims, Sikhs and Dalits across India. They demolished Babri Mosque and they will also demolish Taj Mahal and other historic buildings as they don’t represent Hindu pride,” the minister said. “The RSS and VHP goons are not being challenged by anyone and they kill and lynch minorities on will across India. If the world doesn’t rise to save Kashmir now, this Hindu extremism may try to eat away entire South Asia,” he said.
Shehryar said Narendra Modi is not being challenged by India’s state institutions as Modi is presenting himself as a follower of Hitler and Mussolini. “We need to understand that even the uniform of RSS activists is a mixture of what followers of Hitler and Mussolini used to wear. RSS leader MS Golwalkar drew lessons from Hitler and used to preach the genocide of Indian minorities. Modi is implementing the same RSS ideology now,” he said.

The minister said Prime Minister Imran Khan is leading the effort to spread awareness in the world about the threats posed by Hindu extremists. He urged the British lawmakers to work along with Pakistani parliamentarians and business leaders to warn the world of threats posed by Hindutva regime.
Afridi said Pakistan Army is pride of the country and that overseas Pakistanis must take pride for being from a country which is working for regional and world peace. “If we did not have a strong army, God forbid, Pakistan would have been run over by extremist Hindus, just like Iraq, Syria, Libya and other countries were overtaken by extremists,” he said. “We need to think why despite being second biggest population in the world, the Muslims are being targeted across the world,” he added.
The minister said entire Pakistan stands united irrespective of the political divide to defend Kashmir and no one will ever compromise on Kashmir. “Pakistan takes pride in its sons who are earning respect for it by serving the people of United Kingdom as parliamentarians. He said it is a matter of delight for Pakistanis that their brothers not only worked days in and days out for Britain but they are also serving the British as their lawmakers,” he said, and urged the overseas Pakistanis living in United Kingdom to work diligently for the welfare and good of the British people so that the bond between the two countries can be further strengthened.
