Appreciating the Muslim girl for not bowing down, he said the brave daughter faced the Hindu extremists with exemplary courage, which was being admired across the globe.
Dr Shahzad criticised the international human rights organisation for not raising voice against the Hindu extremists and said “they (HR activists) are not able to see the bloodshed of Muslims in Kashmir and Palestine”.

He said Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also viewed that Islamophobia was not acceptable at any cost. Russian President Vladimir Putin had also issued a statement in this regard, endorsing Pakistan’s point of view, he said.
