He also said that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the chief terrorist and is not only pushing the entire region towards war but has become a threat to world peace also. He said that it seems that Modi watches Indian films a lot so he is very fond of surgical strikes and mostly talk about surgical strikes.

He said that ISIS and RSS have formed an alliance against Pakistan. He also said that since Modi came in power, atrocities against Kashmiris by Indian forces have increased manifolds. He added that he had repeatedly demanded from the government to take India to the International Court of Justice for the worst human rights violations, crimes against humanity and unprecedented brutalities in Indian Occupied Kashmir. He said “I can prove that Modi is trying his best to break Pakistan, which he has stated many times in his speeches that he has links in Balochistan”.

He said that it is good that he visited Quetta.
