Replying to a question by one of the hosts on Pakistan\u2019s strategic paradigm focused on infiltration in Kashmir, Jamal said, \u201cHuman rights violations are associated with militancy and terrorism which are often ignored because Pakistan tries to glorify these in the name of Islam and service to Islam.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
