Speaking on the occasion, Kayani said that the main purpose of initiating the digital van was to draw the world's attention to the October 27, 1947 invasion of Kashmir by the Indian occupation troops.
Through the van, he added, the world is to be made aware of how the Indian government is using its forces to crush the legitimate and peaceful political struggle of the people of the disputed Himalayan valley.
“Kashmiri people across the globe observe October 27 every year as a black day to remind the world to implement the UN resolutions on Jammu and Kashmir so the people can decide about their political future, “ Kayani remarked.
