OIC urges world to take notice of Kashmir issue

Author: Agencies

General Secretariat of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on Wednesday expressed serious concern over the complete lockdown in Indian-held Kashmir (IHK) by the occupation forces even on the auspicious occasion of Eid. “The reports of curtailment of religious freedoms of Kashmiri Muslims in the Indian Occupied Kashmir and denying Eid congregations and preventing Kashmiri Muslims from observing religious rituals are condemnable,” said OIC in a statement. The statement further read, “Denial of religious rights constitutes a serious violation of international human rights law and is an affront to Muslims across the world.
