The Kashmir Solidarity Day will be observed on Wednesday (today) to express wholehearted support of Pakistani nation to the just struggle of Kashmiri people for their inalienable right to self-determination in line with the United Nations resolutions.

It will be a public holiday and preparations have been made to observe the day to highlight the plight of the oppressed people of Kashmir and remind the world community of its obligations towards the resolution of the longstanding dispute. This time the day is being observed after India revoked the special status of the occupied valley of Kashmir in August last year in breach of all the international laws, and since then the entire population of the held territory has been under lockdown.

On the occasion, Prime Minister Pakistan Imran Khan will address a special session of AJK Legislative Assembly in Muzaffarabad to express solidarity with the oppressed Kashmiri brethren. Human chains will be formed at Kohala, Mangla, Holar and Azad Pattan points linking Pakistan and Azad Kashmir. In the federal capital, the citizens will form a human chain at D-Chowk to express solidarity with their oppressed Kashmiri brethren. Rallies, public meetings, and seminars will be held across the country, including Azad Kashmir to draw attention of the world community towards grave human rights violations and brutalities against innocent Kashmiris by the Indian security forces. Banners highlighting the plight of innocent Kashmiris have already been put on display at all important points and roads all over the country.
