ISLAMABAD: President Arif Alvi on Saturday said the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), through several of its resolutions, had validated the Kashmiris’ right to decide their future through a fair and impartial plebiscite.

“October 27 marks one of the darkest chapters of the Jammu & Kashmir history. On this day, seven decades ago, Indian forces landed in Srinagar to occupy, subjugate, oppress and terrorise the innocent people of Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IoK) in blatant violation of international law,” he said in a message on the Black Day.

Despite the UNSC’s commitment to the international community to enforce these resolutions, India had embarked on a path of punitive suppression and pathological genocide that continued to this day, he said.

The president said Indian human rights atrocities had been well documented in the report of the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) on Kashmir and had been corroborated by leading human rights organisations.

“India does not realise that it is impossible to crush the spirit of the people once they commit to the achievement of their freedom,” he said.

Arif Alvi said Pakistan strongly supported the OHCHR report’s recommendation to constitute a Commission of Inquiry (COI) to analyse the human rights situation in Indian occupied Jammu & Kashmir.

“We pay homage to the sacrifices of our brethren in IoK and reiterate our unflinching and steadfast moral, diplomatic and political support for the just cause of the people of Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir. This support will continue till the realisation of their lawful right to self-determination,” he said.
