Pakistani citizen Aliya Harir reached out to Swaraj to ensure her delegation’s safe return to Pakistan after the 11th Global Youth Peace Festival in Chandigarh. After a reassuring response from Swaraj, she tweeted, “Extremely overwhelmed. Spoke to @SushmaSwaraj ji who assured that Pakistani delegation of #GYPF2016 will reach Pakistan back safe.”

Aliya told The Express Tribune that she had spoken to Sushma on October 1. She said the foreign minister had asked her about how she felt being in India. Aliya said she also asked if the delegation had faced any trouble.
She said she had told Sushma that India felt like home. “Mein samajhtee hoon beta, logon key beech bohat pyaar hai,” the foreign minister told her. Aliya said Sushma had assured her that she would ensure the delegation’s safe return to Pakistan and she need not worry about anything.
Aliya led a 19-student delegation bearing hand-written notes and friendship cards from various schools in Pakistan. At the festival, she won the Global Youth Icon Award for her initiative Aaghaz-e-Dosti, an Indo-Pak friendship initiative.

Nawaz demands UN-led probe into Kashmir abuses
Aliya revealed that the girls’ parents and relatives were afraid for their safety in India, but they still went ahead with their tour. “There is talk of war and tension, but we wanted to come here. Our families were shocked, scared. Friends even said tell us your last wish. I told them to turn the TV off and let us go,” Roohani Barkal, one of the girls, told Hindustan Times.
Addressing the United Nations General Assembly earlier in September, Sushma Swaraj urged Pakistan to abandon its “Kashmir dream”, claiming the disputed territory was an integral part of her country. Sushma’s address came as the two nuclear-armed nations and arch-rivals exchange barbs over an attack on an Indian military base in Srinagar earlier this month which had left 18 uniformed men killed.
Brings back bitter memories of your behaviour with Kabir Khan.
Shame on her, stupid double faced women.
She is truly our star! She brings sanity to a world going mad!
Its all diplomacy and nothing else.
@Faisal: I disagree with you. You need to be proud of her maturity and humanism, not ashamed. We need more Aliya Harirs in both Pakistan and India, and that will enable the whole region to prosper and live a peaceful life.
A simple diplomatic stunt by Sushma Swaraj. How does it become a touching response?
My question to Sushma Swaraj: “Do you really think the daughters of Kashmir being saanjhi? In fact do you even accept them human beings? “
Not impressed. Cheap stunt by both lady actors.
I have many classmates here in my new class studies who are from India, and we talk and feel as if we come from same place!!
Washington Post last month wrote an article calling Sushma Swaraj “Super Mom”. She had solutions to everyones problem in Twitter. Even one person complained to her – regarding his new fridge not working 🙂
@Mujtaba Gujjar: Yes all Indians consider all kashmiries their brothers and sisters. However when the same question is asked to our Kashmiri brothers and sisters they tend to avoid answering.
A girl, in India, of Pakistani origin..
She had to be on her knees for her safety. No emotions here.!
@AKB, Yes indeed, Kashmiris seems to be dumb that they do not reciprocate to brotherly/ sisterly love of Indians! They should feel peace and life long happiness at receiving gift of blinded eyes, bruised face and dotted upper body from the splinters fired from pallet guns of brotherly Indian army! What a soothing feeling of love you have for your Kashmiri brothers and sisters!
News like these give hope. Other wise media show only the darker sides.
@AKB:
Oh really! you show your love toward Kashmiri people with pellet guns and severe torture and this can only be expect from extremist Hindu regime.
Indian are brainwashed, learn something from Om Puri sb.
I’m not impressed with this star plus drama.
Why will indian army waste their pellets unless provoked.2% throw pebbles and rocks and you expect no response.throwing pebbles at our forces is a industry for hurriyat.how will they survive if there is no terrorism in kashmir.God bless, rab rakha
