Kashmiri’s rally near UN for right to self-determination

New York, The Gulf Observer: Kashmiris from across the US staged a big rally in front of the UN building to renew their call on the world body to implement its pledge for their exercise of the right of self-determination, as India’s External Affairs Minister, S. Jaishankar, addressed the General Assembly.
Led by Azad Kashmir President Barrister Sultan Mahmood Chaudhry, they denounced India’s illegal measures of 5 August 2019 that revoked the special status of Jammu and Kashmir.
Their placards read: “India: Honour UN Resolutions”, “Freedom for all, Freedom for Kashmir”, “Indian Forces: Out of Kashmir”, “Demilitarize Kashmir”, “UN: Wake UP”, “No Justice, No Peace”, “We Demand Justice for Yasin Malik”; “India: Release All Political Prisoners.”
A large number of Sikhs joined the rally, with Dr. Amarjit Singh, the head of Washington-based Khalistan Affairs Center, expressing solidarity with the Kashmiris struggle for freedom from India.
“We stand with you against our common enemy,” he told the cheering crowd.
