Radio mantra stop and think b.c. Radio in Lancashire. It's 7 minutes Paul 7 now about. Some prime minister in Rome has been at the World Economic Forum in Davos this week was the Qana meet struggles to cope with the new reforms much of the spotlight in the region is still about the disputed territory of Kashmir Mr Han has been speaking to the B.B.C.'s Michel Hussein who asked him if he stood by his comments which compared the Indian government to the Nazis India at the moment has been run by an extremist ideology which is core. Got its inspiration 9025 was formed by the Nazi party they admired the Nazi party they. Admired the racial purity of the Nazis and. The Ethnic Cleansing of Muslims from India the way the Nazis dealt with the Jews this is all you have to do is read the writings of the founding fathers of ORUs as and you would know it is an extremist resist ideology which murder Markman Gandhi he was murdered by r.s.s. It was banned 3 times in India but to many people the comparison with the Nazis will seem not only farfetched but offensive all you have to do is read what the founding fathers of Orissa said they believed in Hindu racial superiority but then let me ask you about what is happening in another of your neighbors China and the western region of China Shenyang where we have overwhelming evidence over many many months about the systematic incarceration of hundreds of thousands of Muslims about about reeducation camps as the Chinese called about surveillance outside the camps where your public statements on that because 1st of all as a disputed territory between Pakistan and India it concerns us directly. According to don't know 11 un resolutions 70 years ago this was a disputed territory and the people of Iraq. Random was supposed to decide whether the wanted to good point is that idea that there were happen at the moment I do not know enough about or if I have we will speak to the Chinese privately because that's how the journeys are you do not know enough about it they have been numerous reports some of this is some of this is already known from policy documents that all that that up before by the Chinese about the building for I don't know because at the moment concern is what is happening to Pakistan the disputed territory and indeed you want to the international community to do more on Kashmir you've asked them to think beyond the trade and business advantage i.e. Doing doing business with India you've also to think beyond that as far as Kashmir is concerned and yet you do not seem willing to think beyond that in terms if you were to who must understand something this is a huge problem what is happening in whatever is happening anywhere else in the world there's not a chance of us a conflict like between nuclear armed country. This is a big threat this will have consequences Bob your own they do of this goes wrong hence as someone who sees that this the India is heading in the wrong direction hence it is my duty to really don't go work to the one forum which was made after the 2nd world war to prevent these sort of conflicts so what is the way forward then are you hoping that President Trump does get involved that he takes on some kind of role I mean that would India obviously objects to any kind of what it would see as international interference in its affairs if there's no discussion between August and India How's this issue going to be resort and listen on to either the un gets on board or power like us gets on board here in Davos you've been talking on a wide range of issues security but also the call. I mean and Pakistan is still struggling with an economic crisis you've had to raise taxes manufacturing is down the repeat has been decimated What is your plan to get out of that well you know Michel we inherited a very difficult situation the largest ever a current account deficit of our imports were $60000000000.00 almost. Exports were down to $20000000000.00 We had this huge gap so when we took over we had to take drastic steps. Unfortunately you know that meant to be in to the people contraction but then we saw the current account deficit came down by 70 percent 75 percent I call me has the rupee that stabilized stock market is going up because the confidence now in the last one year investment has gone up 200 percent now this is the year we want growth and Bob is that so people can get jobs at the last one year of stabilization was difficult for people but to any economy that has this. Issue of huge deficit and huge debts has to go through a painful period. Pakistan Prime Minister speaking to the B.B.C.'s Michelle Hussein kept calling on Michelle. Isn't ours to get it wrong as well once in awhile isn't a steward's a comma where going to be hearing. About. And the Government's introduction of tougher terrorism laws we're going to get reaction to the implementation of more jail time closer monitoring on the proposition to create terrorists take lie detector tests and a little later on we're going to be hearing about the Oscar nominated director behind the new film about a British teenager who dad disappears we're going to be hearing from Ashland but let's go to some music and this is the. Jake have in there with Davy Jada You're listening to in this it's a quarter past 7 and Oscar nominated film director is behind a brand new film about a British teenager who's dad to. Pais Ashman is a writer director and costar of the movie called no fathers in Kashmir which takes Noor back to her home in Indian administered Kashmir he's been talking about his film to the b.b.c. B.b.c. Reporter Nasir honey the story of fathers in Kashmir is about this girl from the mutiny community from. You know from from the Pakistan side of the Schmitter. Whose mother brings her to the valley quote unquote which the Indian side of Kashmir where her father. Grandparents live so she says she's gone from she's born from a family which which comes from both sides of Kashmir. And she finds out at that at that moment that her mother's been telling her half truths all her life and that a father didn't just abscond but he in fact was disappeared and she's wondering what is disappeared and disappeared is the term used in Kashmir when the Indian armed forces pick somebody up and usually in the in the dead of night and then he's heard of no more and. Usually. And tries to find out what happened to him and meets this young boy from the village and the 2 of them as they were best friends they both went would disappear together. And. They discover horrific truths which neither of them thought that they would be coming across so that's why did you choose to tell the story. I had because there's so much misunderstanding this. Much. Propaganda and an and an and the narrative but. I mean in the West most people in the West think of Kashmir as jump or. Song and that place in between India and Pakistan where they're having a big bit of you know war over I mean that's going to the extent of the knowledge in the West and of course back in India it's all about Pakistani interest traitors coming in you know causing a mess and and it's and it's pretty confused the narrative is very confused and it's very it's very unique and it's not nuanced and and it does not. Revealing the complexity of actually what is happening in Kashmir so I thought if I could take a human story just a story about human beings trying to be human and live here manatee but trying to do it and these extremely complex stances perhaps I could be able to make people relate to it what response have you had to the film from India has been overwhelming we had an outstanding a reception at the festival it was put in 3 times on public demand 2000 people watched it on one particular show at the India Habitat Center in New Delhi in fact but more importantly which is my biggest worry actually because of the misrepresentation and representations of the media community both in mainstream media and in the Bollywood film industry I was acutely aware of my responsibility to portray. The community in in a way in which this perhaps could become their the calling God you know and that perhaps this could be the film to which they would turn to to say if somebody asked them you know what's going on and they would say you know what. That gives you a sense of what's happening there and I'm very very pleased to see that I've been vindicated because you know just just having them embrace having Kashmiris embrace this film is the ultimate satisfaction and what message do you hope people watching the film across the u.k. Will take away from it generally a sense of awareness I hope people are touched by the film I mean it's a tender romance and I hope people through the dental romance to try to get a sense of the the idea. Of compassion you know that conflicts can be solved provided both sides look at it from a compassionate point of view you must be able to put yourself into the shoes of the people that you judge and perhaps not judge so quickly and I think the people of you can particularly with you know because the film is that I think I think this is the 1st film that's been actually made about immutability community I mean I'm not sure there's any feature film ever been made about that community before I may be wrong so I think. From Pakistan should show up and you know take a look at the film and I feel even from the Indian side the pundits who are here in the u.k. You know should take a look at it and you know because we're so far removed now geographically at least from the from the Indian subcontinent that perhaps this is the kind of place where we could start having a conversation about topics that may be a little difficult to get into back home you know maybe u.k. Is the place where both communities can come together sit to watch a film film like this and debate and discuss and you know how do we how do how do we go from. Here you know where do we go and I think a lot of this can happen from the youth you know Julian White younger and younger Indians and younger Pakistanis you know who are not perhaps traumas of partition that has erupted these 2 nations and continue to create so much tension between them and the rest of the world in right younger people to come in into the fold come in watch the film it's about the young people it's the stories of your forefathers and your ancestors you know watch the film and maybe we can all together try and come up with. Discussing this without going at each other film director Ashwin Kamar talking to a reporter in the flare and that's out in the cinema in our selected cinema has at least anyway about its final what's happening on the road here's Nick Carr. B.b.c. Radio and b.b.c. Radio in Lancashire travel update traffic on the m 6 still having to avoid a couple of lanes being closed on the southbound side 34 to 33 surprisingly it's actually coping quite well over the speed sensors at least see that traffic seems to be flowing. Over the question on the southbound side of the m 6 lung cancer Garstang going the other way no restrictions on the rest the most way network across the region seems Ok no problems on the m 60 around the outskirts of Manchester if you had a near black bridge not too far from Whitefield as well Manchester the a 56 main road that comes through there just north of the m 16 north of Manchester is close by in m. Between white field and black British vehicle and the cyclists involved are not sure exactly how serious it is I know there was an air ambulance at one point. Closed because of emergency repairs telemetry in Church Road and James Butterworth Street Manchester city center seems Ok because Chinese New Year celebrations are soon at some point they might be road work some fireworks maybe fireworks at some point if they've gone out yet but may bring actual people in an exit far so good from white. It's a public transport such stop or engineering works continually said there are some replacement bus services running against through that area that's the latest. And the d.c. Radio. It's funny to minutes past 7 now now a documentary called young Sikh and proud will be on b.b.c. One on Tuesday night it's about journalist Sonny Handel who explores the legacy of his late brother Doug Raj Singh who turned his back on a Western lifestyle to become one of the most populous state leaders in modern Britain inspiring young people to turn to their faith but for Sonny split with his brother let's find out more as Sonny Hunter joins me on the line now good evening reading So Sunny this must have been quite an emotional documentary to work home what made you want to do a story on your brother I mean it was very emotional I mean and you know I want you to do this story about my brother because he journalistically he was one of the most charismatic and you know popular 6 leaders in this country very much a British product you know someone who had. Gone to college country Gone talks had invested she then joined the British Army and then became leader and I and I want to show his story because you know it's not just Sikhs who have gone through the journey of becoming really just trying to find a meaning to their life and I'm sort of peace or find something out and they have covered their faith maybe but I want to generalistic the tell that story about may I think interesting but then also I want to recognise his story and show other people's art this was an amazing guy and then we talk about our Clash because you know that also feeds into the story. So before we talk a little more about that clash but tell us a little bit more about to graduate when did this turnaround from you know westernized party boy to becoming a legislator come about when when did you notice the signs. Well after university he started what happened was that you know us to he was big for a while and then my mom said to him listen why don't you go to the city council go to a camp and maybe you'll come back a middle bit more disciplined little bit more appreciation for your faith and you'll see that you know maybe a party you know this kind of stuff isn't really you know you're overdoing it you know there's been a discipline I think that's what she thought and she says she sent him off to speak out and then he comes back by just completely changed because he had seen something that transformed his way of looking at the was and he for a while you know this is something to me and he said he talks about in his videos quite openly says that you know a university has done everything and then he suddenly goes with the camp and then find something they had never seen before and I think a lot of other people. Said me when I went to university in the mid ninety's went to estimate a journey who you know and I sort of thing he becomes motivated and having becomes really popular you know but he starts preaching to a new room for him to do that did he did he take umbrage then did it will be baptized Yeah yeah he took over the week after he went to see camp and then wanted to become property but his journey doesn't stop them that's up to child cold basics of picking and start talking to people on the street about trying to get them to understand their own religion sometimes and other cases get white people to understand what the Kingdom is about because they don't get into town to get country and so then he becomes then his journey becomes really interesting because it comes up in the he's invited across the you know he gets a little stake in this country to become religious those who are to rediscover their faith and so he goes to this really fascinating journey and I wanted to talk about this guy. You know as a 3 dimensional person a person who grows up he who sort of goes overboard with a party then goes to cap them become religious and you know he and the aim is to try and paint this 3 dimensional picture of this person and show that he was very much a British product you know someone who was born and bred in this country and to illustrate to people who watch b.b.c. One who most the more the Sikhs but just to illustrate to them that there's a good reason why people in this country sometimes discover faith and there's nothing wron
