Kashmiris observing India's Independence Day as Black Day today

Kashmiris on both sides of the Line of Control and across the world are observing India's Independence Day as Black Day today.

The Black Day marks by a complete strike in the occupied territory, call for which has been given by the Joint Resistance Leadership comprising Syed Ali Gilani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Muhammad Yasin Malik.

The purpose of the observance of the day is to convey a message to the international community that New Delhi has usurped their inalienable right to self-determination by dint of force.

Indian authorities have adopted strict measures in the name of security in all parts of central, south, and north Kashmir to stop the Kashmiris from staging anti-India demonstrations.
