SIMLA
AGREEMENT A BIG MISTAKE:SHAHBAZ SHARIF
Terming the historic 1972 Simla
agreement between India and Pakistan a “big mistake”, Chief Minister of
Pakistan’s Punjab province Shahbaz Sharif has said it partially hurt the
Kashmiris’ freedom struggle. “The Simla agreement was a big mistake (on the
part of Islamabad) as it dampened the spirit of the Kashmiris fighting for
their freedom and hurt their movement though it never stopped in Kashmir,”
Sharif said. The agreement had resulted in release of some 90,000 Pakistani
soldiers imprisoned by India following the 1971 war fought between the two
South Asian neighbours.
