Under a section titled 'Gender-based Violence as a Weapon of War’, the petition sent by Pakistan Pakistan Human Rights minister Shireen Mazari, quoted both Khattar and Saini.

Khattar was mentioned for his alleged comments referring to outsiders would now be able to marry Kashmiri girls after the revocation of provisions of Article 370.

"Now some people say, Kashmir is open, they (brides) will be brought from there. But jokes apart, if (sex) ratio is improved, then there will be a right balance in society," he said in an event in Fatehabad, Haryana, on August 10.

"Some people are now saying that as Kashmir is open, brides will be brought from there. But jokes apart, if (the gender) ratio is improved, then there will right balance in society," Mazari quoted.
