The tweet has come when Prime Minister Imran Khan’s rally is to start from Muzaffarabad, the capital of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Imran Khan’s decision to hold the rally is widely considered as an attempt to distract from Pakistan’s failure in UNHRC. Imran Khan says that the rally from Muzaffarabad is intended to inform the world about the continued exploitation of Indian troops in Kashmir and to prove that Pakistan was with Kashmiris.
