AJKLA to hold special session in Muzaffarabad tomorrow

Muzaffarabad: AJK Legislative Assembly has summoned a special session in connection with Youm-e-Istehsal in Muzaffarabad on Monday  (tomorrow).

Prime Minister Pakistan Shehbaz Sharif is expected to address the assembly session.

On the other hand, Youm-e-Istehsal will be observed in the country tomorrow to register protest against Indian government's illegal action of August 5, 2019.

The Hindutva-influenced BJP-led Indian regime had illegally and unilaterally abrogated Article 370 and 35-A of the Indian constitution, revoking the Special Status of Kashmir, five years ago.

A special walk from Foreign Office to D-Chowk, Islamabad will be organized to express solidarity with Kashmiris.

Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar will lead the walk while federal ministers, lawmakers, political leaders of various parties, members of civil society, academia, students, and media persons will also join the event.

 The walk will commence at eight in the morning from the Foreign Office and will reach D-Chowk at twenty five minutes to nine where Ishaq Dar will address the participants.

There will be one-minute silence at nine in the morning and all the moving traffic will come to a halt.  National anthems of Pakistan and Azad Kashmir will also be played.

Besides, special walks and ceremonies will be organized across Pakistan, including all four provinces, Islamabad Capital Territory, Azad Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan.

On this day, Jammu and Kashmir dispute and violations of the fundamental rights of Kashmiris will be highlighted.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is expected to visit Muzaffarabad to express solidarity with Kashmiris. He will give a policy statement in connection with the Youm-e-Istehsal.

State media as well as private media organizations will broadcast special transmissions, highlighting leaders of Kashmir's freedom struggle, sacrifices of Kashmiris, and Indian atrocities against innocent civilians in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu Kashmir.

Meanwhile, in AJK, Pena flexes, banners and posters have been displayed in all the cities projecting Indian state terrorism and human rights violations in Indian Illegally Occupied Kashmir.

Documentaries about illegal steps taken by India on 5th Aug 2019 will be shown tomorrow on big screens in major cities of AJK.

All three radio stations in the state are broadcasting special programs in connection with Youm-e-Istehsal.
