The minister pointed out Priyanka Chopra’s recent support shown towards the nefarious activities being carried out in the IoK where close to 0.8 million soldiers have held a population of 9 million hostages. Mazari said that United Nation’s Ambassador for Peace Priyanka Chopra was supporting the tyrannical government of India and it’s head of state against innocent Kashmiri’s and their plight for freedom.
