Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Sunday reaffirmed that Pakistan will continue to provide political, diplomatic, and moral support to the people of Jammu and Kashmir in their legitimate struggle for the right to self-determination and freedom. In his message on the occasion of Kashmir Martyrs’ Day, observed annually on July 13, the prime minister paid tribute to the 22 Kashmiris who laid down their lives in 1931 while protesting against the oppressive Dogra regime in Jammu and Kashmir. “It serves as a reminder of the inherent steadfastness, resistance against brutal forces, and unwavering resolve of the Muslims of Kashmir. The struggle for freedom, human rights, and Kashmiri rights has been going on throughout Kashmir’s history,” the premier said. “The Kashmiri people have been, and are, sacrificing their lives in their legitimate struggle for the right to self-determination. “The government of Pakistan expresses its political, diplomatic, and moral support in solidarity with the Muslims of Jammu and Kashmir, which is illegally occupied by India. “We salute the bravery and determination of all Kashmiri martyrs who sacrificed their lives during decades of Indian occupation.” “Today, the Government of Pakistan reaffirms its commitment to the resolution of the Kashmir issue and the right of self-determination of Jammu and Kashmir in accordance with United Nations resolutions,” he concluded.
