The Azad Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly (AJK LA) in its meeting held here on Sunday, strongly rejected the abrogation of Article 370 by Indian government and termed it a dirty conspiracy against the state subjects and their democratic rights. They termed the sinister actions as an atrocious assault to alter the region’s demographics and erode Muslim majority Kashmir’s ancient political, cultural and religious identity.
According to details, the legislative body through a unanimously adopted resolution, presented by Leader of the House Prime Minister Chaudhry Anwar ul Haq on Saturday denounced the Indian move and termed it as a flagrant violation of the UNSC resolutions. While presenting the resolution in the assembly, the AJK PM said that 5th August was another darkest day in the history of Kashmir.
He said that being a representative forum of the entire state of Jammu and Kashmir, the AJK legislative assembly represents the sentiments and feelings of the Kashmiri’s living on both sides of the Line of Control. The august House, he said, rejects the India’s attempted annexation of the held territory of Jammu and Kashmir and considers all its actions as illegal and against the spirit of the UN resolutions and international law. “The House considers changing the status of IIOJK and dividing it into two Union Territories as an attempt to push forward Hindutva agenda in the region and erode identity of Kashmiri’s. The resolution condemned the India’s cultural aggression and distortion of the Kashmir’s history and its civilization.
