ISLAMABAD:The joint session of Azad Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly and Azad Jammu and Kashmir Council is being held in Muzaffarabad today to express solidarity with people of Occupied Kashmir.
The House will take up the issue of the current situation arising out of the massacre by the Indian troops in Shopian and Islamabad districts.
Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi will address the joint session.
In a message, the Prime Minister said Pakistan would stand up to the demand of the victims of Indian brutality. He said Pakistan has strongly condemned the brutal and indiscriminate use of force by the Indian occupation forces leading to martyrdom of eighteen innocent Kashmiris in Shopian and Anantnag areas of Occupied Kashmir.
