They highlighted the valuable services of Shafiq Rehman and said that we appreciate and support this decision of the President of Azad Kashmir because a few years ago, the then government had given the post of advisor to Shafiq Rehman and while holding this post, Shafiq Rehman had made every possible effort for welfare of the Azad Kashmir community living in the UK. It is hoped that in the future too, he will fulfil his responsibility by utilising all his abilities like in the past.
