Najam Sethi is a very respected Pakistani journalist. He has his view points by looking at the issue from Pakistan’s side. However, he is an experienced journalist and is aware of the ground realities in J&K. Pakistan is no position to take a high moral ground considering that they have already ‘annexed’ Gilgit Baltistan – Northen Area and has also ceded a part of it to China. The demographic profile of the Northen Area has also been changed by the Federal Government and Sunni Punjabi population has encroached the area threatening the domestic local culture of Shiya Muslims. Mr. Sethi is silent on this aspect, though he realises that Pakistan is in no position to ‘reset’ its issues with China, India and Afghanistan. Instead of forcing the vexedKashmir issue and creating meaningless and futile noise, Pakistan should focus on improving its economy. Imran Khan wants to divert attention of Pakistani people from the dismal performance oh his government on economic front. With economy on the verge of bankruptcy, he will not be able to hide harsh realities for long.
