Posters again appealed to people of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir to observe August 5, Youm-e-Istehsal-e-Kashmir, as Black Day.
On August 5, 2019, the Modi-led Hindutva re-gime revoked Article 370 that granted special status to the internationally recognised disputed territory and imposed a brutal military and police siege.
