Embassy of Pakistan Riyadh Holds a Media Briefing on “Right to Self-Determination Day”
The objective was to sensitize the International Community about the historic Resolution adopted by UN Commission for India and Pakistan (UNCIP), on 5th January 1949, which enshrines the Right to Self-determination to Kashmiri people.
The Resolution underscores that the question of accession of State of Jammu and Kashmir will be decided through a free, fair and impartial plebiscite under the UN auspices.
The Ambassador Raja Ali Ejaz, while briefing the Media personnel paid a rich tribute to the sacrifices rendered by the Kashmiri people in their struggle for the right to self-determination. He highlighted the grave human rights situation in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K).
The Ambassador called upon India to stop brutalizing the innocent Kashmiris who were suffering under its illegal occupation for the last seven decades.
He demanded that India should immediately end its military siege, reverse its policy of demographic change, remove draconian laws, restore basic human rights, free all detainees, lift all restrictions on the free movement and communications, and allow full access to the UN and other international human rights observers and fact-finding missions, including independent foreign media representatives, to witness the on-ground situation.
