A video of the rally is shared on social media. In the video, masked men were seen carrying guns, swords, bows and sticks who are raising slogans of Jihad and chanting Al-Jihad.

Locals Oppose Kashmir Solidarity Day

Notably, the people of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) have strongly rejected Islamabad’s call for ‘Kashmir Solidarity Day’ on February 5 and demonstrated against Pakistan for not providing rights to them. This came after the residents of PoK and Gilgit Baltistan opposed Kashmir Solidarity Day, which is being observed in Pakistan misleadingly to show their support for the Kashmiris.


Locals are highlighting the stark difference between PoK and the developing Jammu and Kashmir, the Union Territory of India. Exposing Pakistan’s deception on Kashmir, the residents in PoK are suggesting Islamabad look at its shortcomings instead of doing propaganda on the issue.

Toqeer Gilani, a political activist in PoK, while expressing his anger, said, “According to the resolution of the United Nations, Pakistan is bound to take care of the needs of the people here. On one hand, Pakistan announces to express solidarity with Kashmir on February 5, on the other hand, the same dispensation denies the basic rights to the people under its control. We can see that the propaganda of Kashmir is being used rapidly this year in Pakistan to distract attention from the movement that is going on here,” he added.

Though Pakistan’s propaganda on Jammu and Kashmir has no takers, it has continued to promote disinformation and hype for decades now. Unfortunately, the rulers in Pakistan have chosen to remain selfish at a time when the people there do not even have food to eat.
