The unity of Pakistani students in the UK under NUPSA, National Union of Pakistani Students and Alumni is crucial, according to Pakistani High Commissioner in the UK, Mr Wajid Shams-ul-Hassan. In a exclusive interview, Mr Sham-ul-Hassan told umaronline.com that Pakistani students in the UK are doing a 'great job by putting the correct picture across' following on from the arrests of Pakistani students in the UK in connection with terrorism. He lamented the fact that senior Pakistanis are divided into different sects and communities and stressed the importance of rising above these barriers. Appreciating the role played by Pakistani students in the UK in helping the victims of Swat and the major earthquake in 2005, he said he was confident that the youth are doing very well and sure that they will continue to help the country in this tough time.
