Rasheed said Pakistan took the Kashmir issue to the UN Security Council after 52 years, which is an achievement on diplomatic front.

He said the Pakistan Army is ready to give a benefiting response to India if it resorts to any misadventure.

The minister said all the people of Pakistan and Azad Kashmir stand behind the Armed Forces.

He said Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is following in the footsteps of Hitler, who had destroyed his entire army as well as the nation.

Rasheed lamented the Indian Muslims are being meted out unfair treatment.
