Ahead of the upcoming India-Pakistan clash in Asia Cup, the Jammu and Kashmir Student Association (JKSA) in Occupied Kashmir has urged the students hailing from the state and studying at different universities all over India to take the game in its spirit and stay away from posts on social media which might lead them into trouble.

With memories of the arrest of three Kashmiri students in Agra for posting pro-Pakistan social media posts after it won a match in the T20 World Cup last year, still fresh, JKSA national spokesperson Nasir Khuehami issued the advisory asking the students to take it as just another game and stay away from trouble, reported Hindustan Times.

Arch-rivals India and Pakistan are all set for a T20 cricket match on Sunday (today), as part of the Asia Cup fixture at Dubai International Stadium and it is expected to be a high-voltage match.

Last year in October, Babar Azam-led Pakistan defeated India by 10 wickets, following which a few students from Occupied Kashmir were arrested for uploading pro-Pakistan posts on social media.

“We have urged Kashmiri students studying at different universities all over the nation to have their priority set for their education and career for which they have travelled to different parts of the nation from their home state of Jammu and Kashmir,” stated Khuehami while talking to HT on phone on Saturday.

“These students need to take sports as a game and stay away from social media posts during and after the match, which might create any kind of indiscipline at any institution across the country or land them in trouble. They should not get involved in unnecessary debates, discussions or social media chat and should enjoy the game with true sportsman spirit,” Khuehami appealed.
