British MP Debbie Abrahams arrives in Pak after she was denied entry into India

NEW DELHI: A UK opposition member of the British Parliament Debbie Abrahams who had alleged that she was unjustifiably denied entry to India has now landed in Pakistan.

Abrahams along with some MPs had met Pakistan foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi.

"Pakistan has shown an open approach towards resolving the Kashmir issue," she said.

"We are an independent group, we are not anti-India or pro-Pakistan," she added.

Abrahams had alleged that she was denied entry to India because she was critical of Modi’s Kashmir policy.

She was deported to Dubai from Delhi airport.

Abrahams claimed that she had valid visa, but the High Commission of India, London claims otherwise.

“Mission has confirmed from the Indian immigration authorities that Ms Debbie Abrahams did not hold a valid visa. Further, there is no provision for visa on arrival for UK nationals. She was accordingly requested to return,” the mission tweeted.

Abrahams said in a tweet, “Again, for clarity, I am PRO human rights and social justice. I will always speak up for people who are not afforded these rights including Kashmiris on both sides of the line of control.”

Abrahams, leader of the U.K. Parliament’s All Party Parliamentary Group for Kashmir, has been critical of abrogation of Article 370.
