RAWALPINDI : Railways
Minister Sheikh Rashid on Friday briefly got an electric shock while addressing a gathering
during the Kashmir Hour at his
residence, Lal Haveli.
Rashid, who received the electric shock from the mic he was
holding in his address, was
startled and staggered a little. He, however, immediately regained his composure.
“I got an electric shock, but I’m fine, not to
worry,” he said. “There was current. [Indian Prime Minister Narendra] Modi cannot sabotage this
gathering.”
Pakistan, as well as the Pakistani diaspora around the world,
observed Kashmir Hour from 12AM to
12:30PM today to express solidarity with the residents of Indian-occupied Kashmir (IoK) suffering
unprecedented atrocities
perpetrated by Indian armed forces against them.
Kashmir Hour was observed throughout the country, with the
national anthems of Pakistan and
Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) played in a show of solidarity with the oppressed Kashmiris.
