PNCA plans series of activities to mark Youm-e-Istehsal
Islamabad: Pakistan National Council of the Arts (PNCA), in collaboration with the Ministry of Kashmir Affairs and Gilgit Baltistan, has planned a series of activities to mark Youm-e-Istehsal on August 05.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Modi government, in gross violation of the United Nations resolutions and international law, scrapped Article 370 of the Indian Constitution that granted special status to Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir and imposed an unprecedented military siege in the territory on 5th August 2019.
The activities, including photo exhibition, documentaries and a puppet show, will be held at Youm-e-Istehsal to express solidarity with the Kashmiri people in their struggle for achieving the right to self-determination.
These activities are being arranged to highlight the plight of the innocent Kashmiri people in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) and the urgent need for international intervention to ensure justice and peace in the region.
Pakistan will observe Youm-e-Istehsal on August 05 (Monday) to mark the fifth year of the Indian military siege of IIOJK and denounce immoral, illegal and unconstitutional steps against the oppressed Kashmiris.
The government has planned a series of activities, including seminars, conferences, rallies, dialogues and various competitions to mark the Youm-e-Istehsal and express solidarity with the oppressed Kashmiri people.
The rallies would be staged across the country with vibrant participation of people from all walks of life to give a message to the Kashmiri people that Pakistan would always stand with them in their struggle for the right to independence.
