Pakistan marking first anniversary of Kashmir’s annexation on August 5

Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi has called on all political parties to join hands with the government to observe Yaum-e-Istehsal on August 5 to mark the first anniversary of India revoking the special constitutional status of Indian Kashmir.

He said the Kashmiris are not alone in their struggle. The
FM was speaking in Multan on Saturday after offering Eidul Azha prayers.

Prime Minister Imran Khan will address the Legislative
Assembly of AJK on August 5 to highlight the Kashmiri people’s struggle for
freedom. President Dr Arif Alvi will lead a rally on the day, while all the
chief ministers will speak to their respective legislature assemblies to
condemn Indian brutalities on the people of the held valley.

 “The whole nation
should unitedly raise its voice against the military siege imposed by New Delhi
in Indian Kashmir a year ago after revocation of its special status and convey
a message to the Kashmiris that they are not alone in their struggle for the
right to self-determination,” said Qureshi.

The foreign minister said he himself would visit the Line of
Control on August 3 to deliver a message that the Pakistani nation stood with
the Kashmiri brethren.
