The Pakistan Railway Ministry led by Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad has taken things to the next level by announcing that every train in Pakistan would stop between 12 and 12.30 PM tomorrow and play the national anthem in “solidarity” with Kashmir.
As per a video posted by journalist Naila Inayat, the trains would halt, play the national anthem and then re-commence their journey.
In the video the Pakistan’s railway minister said that he would participate in a program in Kashmir’s solidarity at Lal Mahal between 12 to 5 PM tomorrow.
He added that all the 138 trains running daily in Pakistan would halt for one minute between 12 to 12.30 PM and in case they stop at a station, national anthem would be played. He added that work would also halt at various railway factories and workshops during that period.
