ISLAMABAD: Kashmiris on both sides of the Line of Control (LoC) would observe Accession to Pakistan Day on Tuesday to rededicate all energies and resources to continue liberation movement.
Every year the day is celebrated by Kashmiris living on both sides of the Line of Control (LoC) and in Pakistan. On July 19, 1947, the Kashmiris adopted a historic resolution from the platform of All Jammu and Kashmir Muslim Conference in Srinagar, demanding accession of the state of Jammu and Kashmir to Pakistan in accordance with the Partition Plan and two-nation theory.
The resolution reflected the aspirations of the majority of the people of Jammu and Kashmir to protect their religious, economic and political rights.
Kashmiris want that India should withdraw its forces from the occupied territory and allow the people to decide their own destiny in accordance with the resolutions of United Nations (UN) but India had been denying them this right. Consequently the freedom struggle launched by Kashmiris is still going on unabated. The Kashmir issue has also become a flashpoint for the international community.
In this regard, special meetings including seminars and symposiums would be held in all district and tehsil headquarters of AJK including in the state’s metropolis of Muzaffarabad and in Mirpur, Kotli, Bhimbher, Bagh, Rawalakot, Sudhanoti and Neelam Valley districts.
The day would start with special prayers in mosques for the liberation of all occupied lands, including Indian-held Jammu Kashmir and Palestine.
Meanwhile, Wednesday will be observed as black day against the atrocities being committed by the Indian occupation forces in IHK.
