The Speaker also paid rich tribute to the martyred heroes of Pakistan.
He said that this Independence Day is a reminder to solemnly stand with the Kashmiri’s brethren and sisters who are under the brutalities of the Modi Regime and the Indian Army. He expressed that we all stand with the Kashmir in these hours of atrocities and brutalities by the Indian Army in IOK. “This Independence Day is the day of pledge to stand with the Kashmir when the Indian parliament unabashedly removed the article 370 and 35-A from Indian constitution ignoring all international pledges in the form of the Resolution of the UNO.” He said that India would never be able to suppress the right of self determination of the Kashmiris and their struggle for freedom will result into their freedom from the occupation by the Indian Regime
The Speaker said that on this Independence Day let we rethink about our plans, our actions and their outcomes for forging synergies in the best interest of our country and raising Pakistan to new heights of development. Let we pledge to double and renew our efforts at all regional and international level to reaffirm our support for the Kashmiri people.
