Burhan Wani’s anniversary today

Jammu and Kashmir prepared to pay rich tributes to the young martyred hero of the Kashmir freedom struggle, Burhan Muzaffar Wani, on his 8th martyrdom anniversary on July 8 (today).

The 22-year-old leader’s sacrifice and legacy continue to inspire the Kashmiri youth to perpetuate the 76-year-old freedom movement against the Indian occupation. Special programmes have been finalised in all 20 districts of Azad Jammu and Kashmir, to mark the anniversary.

On the occasion rallies, demonstrations, and special prayers will be held. Prominent Kashmiri leaders and activists will lead the major rallies, reaffirming their pledge to continue Wani’s mission until the liberation of their motherland from Indian occupation.
