The Sindh government and Pakistan People's Party (PPP) observed Youm-e-Istehsal-e-Kashmir on Tuesday with a large rally condemning India's revocation of Article 370 and its continued human rights violations in Indian-occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
Led by provincial ministers Syed Nasir Hussain Shah, Saeed Ghani, and Syed Zulfiqar Ali Shah, the rally began at People's Chowrangi and concluded at Mazar-e-Quaid. Hurriyat leader Advocate Parvez Ahmed, PPP lawmakers, senior officials, and a large number of citizens and students participated, waving Kashmiri and Pakistani flags and holding portraits of Kashmiri freedom fighters.
Addressing the rally, Ghani said August 5 is marked annually to denounce India's illegal actions and reaffirm Pakistan's support for Kashmiris. He emphasized that the abrogation of Article 370 violates UN resolutions and international law.
Nasir Shah expressed hope that the days of oppression in Kashmir would soon end, crediting Pakistan's armed forces and national unity for resisting Indian aggression. Zulfiqar Ali Shah urged the UN to act against Indian atrocities. Hurriyat leader Parvez Ahmed thanked the Sindh Government and PPP for amplifying Kashmir's voice globally, recalling Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's pledge to fight for Kashmir's freedom.
