Srinagar, May 18, 2023 (PPI-OT): The All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) has urged people for a complete shutdown in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) on May 22 against the hosting of G20 meeting in Srinagar by the Narendra Modi-led BJP Indian government.
The call for the strike has also been supported by the Azad Jammu and Kashmir government, political leadership and parties of AJK and Pakistan, while the Kashmiri Diaspora will hold anti-India protest rallies and demonstrations in world capitals, including UK and US, to denounce the Indian move, what the UN Special Rapporteur on Minority Issues, Fernand de Varennes, has described as an attempt to normalize a military occupation over Jammu and Kashmir.
APHC leaders in Srinagar said the Narendra Modi-led Indian government is committing a flagrant violation of international law by holding the G20 meeting in Srinagar. They said Jammu and Kashmir is not India’s part but an internationally-recognized disputed territory whose future is yet to be decided by its people. They said the holding of an international event in a disputed territory is also a violation of the UN Charter.
