MULTAN      -   Senior politician and ex-speaker na- tional assembly Syed Fakhar Imam  said that human rights were being violated in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K) and that the international community should take notice of Indian brutality toward the innocent Kashmiris. Human Rights Organizations will have to play a role to stop India from committing crimes  in IIOJ&K, said Fakhar Imam while ad- dressing a seminar in connection with  International Human Rights Day, at a college, here on Sunday. Human rights violation was in progress in IIOJ&K for  many decades. So far, 95,000 Kash- miris had embraced martyrdom.  Similarly, Women were raped in the occupied valley by the occupation forces. The world will have to ensure the delivery of rights to the Kashmiris.  He also stressed upon students to ac- quire quality education as it is the only  way forward to put the country on the path leading to matchless progress and prosperity. The nations, that focused  on quality education made rapid prog- ress, said Fakhar. We have 230 uni- versities in the country but could not  develop even a single varsity of inter- national standard, he hinted. Only one  university in the country is included in the top 500 universities of the world. Fakhar Imam stressed the promotion of Information Technology adding that the IT field is capable of improving the country’s economy at a rapid pace.
