Nearly 100,000 innocent Kashmiris have been martyred and over 11,000 women have been raped by the Indian occupying forces since January 1989, highlighting the intensity of the brutality of Indian troops in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
Today Youm-e-Istehsal is being observed to register protest against Indian government’s illegal action of August 5, 2019.
The Hindutva-influenced BJP-led Indian regime had illegally and unilaterally abrogated Article 370 and 35-A of the Indian constitution, revoking the Special Status of Kashmir, five years ago.
