Complete shutdown in Occupied Kahsmir to mark Kahsmiri martyrs day

SRINAGAR - In occupied Kashmir, complete shutdown will be observed tomorrow to mark the Kashmir Martyrs’ Day.

Call for shutdown has been given by the Joint Resistance Leadership to reiterate the urgent need for a peaceful and just resolution of the Kashmir dispute and to put an end to repression against the Kashmiri people.

It was on 13th of July 1931 when the troops of Dogra Maharaja had killed 22 Kashmiris, one after the other, outside Central Jail in Srinagar during the court proceedings against a Kashmiri Abdul Qadeer who had asked people to defy the Dogra rule.
