I have a gentle comment on the above statement that Agha Khan’s interest. Pakistan is the only country in the world where innocent people are killed by just for no reason but they are Muslims. These contractors of Islam religion so called ASWJ headed by the international wanted criminal have all their interest in money. So stop these bullshits and dont forget that the first president of All India Muslim league was Agha Khan III under the umbrella this country came into exist. Hundreds of innocent people killed on way to Gilgit by sunni extremist – is this Islam?

I can understand where ASWJ is coming from! I think its got nothing to do with Aga Khan state but the fear of losing their grip on innocent citizens of Gilgit-Baltistan region and Pakistan in general.

We always talk about righteousness yet we don’t do anything to support our fellow human beings and in this case our brothers and sisters in Islam who are struggling for thier livelihoods. I have one question only for Maulana Ahmed Ludhianvi – What is ASWJ (ot its affiliates) doing to alleviate poverty and improve lives of their fellow brethren mentally, physically and spiritually???

The Prophet (PBUH) always helped everyone, regardless of their beliefs or tribe. And that is Islam my dear brother!!!

If you can not help anyone, then please stay on the sidelines and let others do the right thing as Islam and its ethics teach us… you might learn a thing or two…

First of all im not an ismaili, follower of agha khan but i have met him twice when i was elected reperesentative in gilgit. He has done a lot of work to improve the life of people of GB for the last 30 years Through AKDN ,AKHS, and other networks regardless of race and religion. He has always stressed for education ,and female education has improved in our area due to his efforts. Blaming him to establish a state in GB is just a stupid idea of the sick minds.These statements are given to gain the popularity by rejected people. we should not give importance to such statements.

First of All, It was the Aga khan 3rd Sir Sultan Muhammad Shah the first president of All India Muslim leage who led the Struggle for creating Pakistan and now its the The Aga Khan 4th who is working in the development of Pakistan in the feild of Education, Health, social, economical, rural and urban development without any race or religion. Aga khan wants pakistan to be a prosperous Muslim country, based on the true values of Islam.

the claim of so called ASWJ president regarding Gilgit-Baltistan is useless and baseless.
