It is pertinent to mention that the Narendra Modi-led Hindutva regime on August 05, 2019, revoked Article 370 of the Indian Constitution that granted special status to the internationally recognized disputed territory and imposed a brutal military siege.
In a bid send a clear message to the Indian government that Kashmiris outrightly reject actions taken by the Modi-led Indian government on August 5, 2019 and illegal occupation of their homeland, Kashmiris on the both sides of the Line of Control (LoC) and world over will observe Youm-e-Istehsaal on Saturday.
Scores of events including seminars, protest rallies, screening video documentaries, photo exhibitions exposing Indian brutalities on Kashmiri people have been organized across the Country by the Ministry of Kashmir Affairs and Gilgit Baltistan in collaboration with the provincial governments to pay homage to the Kashmiris and condemn the Indian illegal occupation on Jammu and Kashmir.
One minute silence will be observed at 9:00 am in support of Kashmiris who were martyred in the freedom struggle.
In Federal Capital Islamabad, a walk will be held at Constitution Avenue which will start from Foreign Office and culminate at D-Chowk where Advisor on Kashmir Affairs Qamar Zaman Kaira and leadership of All Parties Hurriyat Conference Azad Kashmir chapter will address the participants.
