Shah Mahmood Qureshi further said that the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the OIC Human Rights Commission coming up with solid stance on inhuman treatment of Kashmiris by India is very welcoming.

Qureshi said that oppressed Kashmiris are eagerly looking towards the International Community especial the Muslim Ummah for getting rid of the Indian tyranny.
