They vowed to carry on the martyrs’ mission till complete success.

They reiterated that the people of Kashmir would render every kind of sacrifice for the Kashmir cause. They urged the Indian government to give up its rigid stance and grant the Kashmiris their inalienable right to self-determination in accordance with the UN resolutions.

They said that the sacrifices given by the Kashmiri martyrs would always be remembered.
