Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti declared Tuesday that August 5, 2019, symbolizes India’s unlawful occupation of Kashmiri rights.

In a statement, commemorating ‘Youm-e-Istehsal’ and demonstrating solidarity with Kashmiris, the Chief Minister’s Secretariat stated that the Modi administration’s unilateral move constitutes a flagrant breach of UN resolutions and human rights. Balochistan’s residents stand in unity with their Kashmiri counterparts in their quest for self-determination.

Bugti pledged continued moral, diplomatic, and political backing for the Kashmiri people in every platform. He expressed confidence that the era of freedom for Kashmir is imminent.
