He said that like their forefathers who fought against the Dogra rulers, Kashmiris will have to struggle for better future of their children along with Nawaz Sharif as he will bring progress and prosperity in the state.

OM Nawaz Sharif had highlighted the Kashmir issue at the international level, he added.
