ISLAMABAD: Chairman Senate Sadiq Sanjrani has decided to convene a special meeting on August 5 to express solidarity with Kashmiris.

According to details, it has been decided to convene a special session of the Senate on August 5 to express solidarity with the Kashmiris. The Senate Secretariat has written a letter to the Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs in this regard.

The letter said that oppression and human rights violations against Kashmiris should be raised and the Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs should immediately send a summary to the President in this regard.

A special agenda on Kashmir will be considered in the special session to be held on August 5. The chairman of the Senate sought the opinion of the parliamentary affairs to hold a session in Muzaffarabad. The chairman of the senate said that the meeting was to express solidarity with Kashmiris.

It should be noted that India had deprived Occupied Kashmir of its special status by repealing Articles 370 and 35A of its Constitution on August 5, 2019, while dividing Occupied Jammu and Kashmir into two federal units. Which was implemented from October 31 last year.

At the same time, India imposed a complete lock down in occupied Kashmir, which has been going on since August 5, while the people there are also facing the closure of the communication system, which has led to an economic and humanitarian crisis.
