Prime Minister Imran Khan condemned India’s “inhuman military siege” and human rights violations in occupied Kashmir, calling for the resolution of the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) dispute as per UNSC resolutions.
PM Imran remarks come as the country observes Youm-e-Istehsal Kashmir against the Indian government’s move to scrap the special constitutional status of IIOJK on August 5, 2019.
In his tweet, Imran said: “Today marks two years since India’s unilateral and illegal actions of 5 Aug 2019 in IIOJK. In these two years, the world has witnessed unprecedented oppression in IIOJK (Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir) by Indian Occupation forces. It is also witnessing Indian efforts to force demographic change and destroy Kashmiri identity.”
He praised the people of occupied Kashmir for remaining “undaunted in their struggle for self-determination” and vowed to continue to raise his voice for their rights “till Kashmiris are allowed to decide their future according to UNSC resolutions”.
