Shahid Afridi, who constantly makes it to the headline by taking up controversial topics has once again done it by saying,
“Pakistan Doesn’t Need Kashmir; It Can’t Even Handle Its 4 Provinces”
Read on more about how this statement was made by him and what he is saying right now.
Shahid Afridi And His Controversial Statements
The remark was made by the International Cricketer Shahid Afridi regarding the Kashmir dispute as a lesson to Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan. In addition, He clearly stated that Pakistan’s demand for Kashmir is useless because it fails in managing the four provinces it already has.
He stated these lines while speaking in London, UK, at a press conference. Shahid Afridi also added that people are dying in Kashmir and it pains to see it happen.
“Say Pakistan doesn’t need Kashmir, don’t give it to India as well, let Kashmir become a country. The people dying there should not die, humanity should stay alive. It pains to see people die there.”
Though the terrorism in Kashmir and the rest of India is being sponsored by Pakistan, he ignored those facts while making this statement. In addition, It is not the first time he is being involved in the Kashmir issue. Furthermore, He had earlier tweeted regarding the same saying…
“Appalling and worrisome situation ongoing in the Indian Occupied Kashmir. Innocents being shot down by oppressive regime to clamp voice of self determination & independence. Wonder where is the @UN & other int bodies & why aren’t they making efforts to stop this bloodshed?”

However, he is now putting on several tweets stating that his words were misconstructed and portrayed in the wrong way on Twitter. Here are his tweets.
My clip is incomplete & out of context as what I said before that is missing.Kashmir is unresolved dispute & under brutal Indian occupation. It must be resolved as per UN resolution. Myself along with every Pakistani support Kashmiri freedom struggle. Kashmir belongs to Pakistan.

My comments are being misconstrued by Indian media! I'm passionate about my country and greatly value the struggles of Kashmiris. Humanity must prevail and they should get their rights.
