A human chain under the leadership of Vice Chancellor KMU Prof Dr Arshad Javaid, Pro VC Prof Dr Jawad Ahmad and Registrar Prof Dr Muhammad Saleem Gandapur along with students, faculty and admin staff was also formed at main campus of KMU.
Earlier while talking to the audience speakers have urged the international community, the United Nations, and human rights organizations to take notice of the grave human rights violations in Indian Occupied Kashmir during the past few days. They said Indian troops are using rape, pellet guns, and mass burials to suppress ingenious freedom struggle of the people of Kashmir against India occupation. The India cannot suppress the freedom movement of Kashmiris through oppressive use of force and state terrorism.
Speakers said Kashmir is an unsettled issue of partition and Indian leaders had promised in the United Nations that Kashmiris would be given a chance of plebiscite under UN supervision so that they could decide their fate according to their own wishes that promise has not yet been fulfilled as Indian leadership fears that Kashmiris will prefer to go with Pakistan instead of New Delhi.
Addressing the participants speakers said India has been committing atrocities in Occupied Kashmir at large scale for several decades but during the recent phase they have not only imposed curfew for an indefinite period but have increased military presence to curb the freedom struggle but Kashmiris are rendering unmatched sacrifices to achieve their birth right of self-determination and the day is not far away when they will able to achieve their just right of self determination.
The speakers said Indian attempts to change demography and disputed status of Occupied Kashmir by abrogating article 370 and 35 A and by allowing non-Kashmiris in the State will not be tolerated. They said India should immediately repeal the black laws in Occupied Kashmir as it cannot suppress the indigenous freedom struggle of the people of Kashmir.
