He said the resolution stated that Kashmiris would decide their political future through a free and impartial plebiscite. But unfortunately, despite the passage of seven decades, this resolution has not been implemented and since then, an endless series of Indian atrocities have continued in occupied Kashmir and the Kashmiri people are making unprecedented sacrifices to achieve their right to self-determination.

Speaking on occasion, General Secretary Advocate Pervez Ahmed said the political, religious and social parties here should stand together behind the Kashmir freedom movement and dispel the propaganda that India is spreading regarding the Kashmir freedom movement that Pakistan has abandoned the Kashmiris.
Addressing the refugees, Director Kashmir of Liberation Cell Raja Sajjad said that refugees are the ambassadors of occupied Jammu and Kashmir and assured that the government of Azad Kashmir and all political parties of Azad Kashmir stand by Kashmiris and will continue to stand by them.
