Pakistan’s top civil and military leadership met in Islamabad for the second time in a week to discuss the prevailing situation in Indian occupied Kashmir.
It must be noted that on August 5, India’s BJP government moved a bill in the upper house of the parliament (Rajaya Sabha) to remove Article 370 from the Indian constitution amid opposition members’ protest.
It was later signed by Indian President Ram Nath Kovind, stripping the state of Kashmir off its special status and turning it a Union Territory with the legislature.
