It was on this day in 2019 that India unilaterally and illegally stripped Jammu and Kashmir of its special status, the action which has since then been rejected by the international community, Kashmiris and Pakistanis alike.

Special events have been organized in connection with the day.

A rally will be taken out on the Constitution Avenue in Islamabad to be participated by people from different walks of life including the federal ministers and members of the parliament. Sirens will be blown and one minute silence will be observed at nine am.

Rallies will also be taken out across all four provinces, Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan.

Meanwhile, President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif have reaffirmed Pakistan’s unwavering solidarity with the people of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

In their separate messages on Youm-e-Istehsal Kashmir being observed today, they paid tribute to the Kashmiri people’s courage, resilience and commitment to their right to self-determination.
