Srinagar, October 27, 2022 (PPI-OT): Kashmiris on both sides of the Line of Control and the world over are observing the 27th October, today, as Black Day to convey to the world that India has occupied their motherland illegally and against their aspirations. The day is being marked by a complete shutdown and civil curfew by the people in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir. Protest marches, rallies and seminars are being held in Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan and all over the world to condemn the invasion of the territory by Indian army on 27th October, 1947 as well as revocation of special status of occupied Kashmir by the Narendra Modi-led fascist Indian government on August 5, 2019.

Call for the observance of the shutdown and Black Day has been given by the All Parties Hurriyat Conference. It was on 27th October in 1947 when Indian troops in total violation of the spirit of the Partition Plan of the Subcontinent had militarily invaded Jammu and Kashmir and illegally occupied it against the will of the Kashmiri people.
