Prime Minister Imran Khan has called attention to the plight of the Kashmiri people living in the occupied territory and suffering abuse of Indian troops, on the occasion of the first International Day Commemorating the Victims of Acts of Violence based on Religion or Belief.
In a series of tweets, Khan urged international community to play its role in preventing an impending genocide of Kashmiris.
“Today, on the 1st International Day for Victims of Violence based on Religion or Belief, we call attention to the plight of millions of Kashmiris living under brutal Indian Occupation, abuse & violence, deprived of all fundamental rights & freedoms,” Khan tweeted.

“The Indian Occupation Forces have even denied them their right to observe their religious practices, including Eid ul Azha. As the world shows solidarity for victims of violence based on religion & belief, it must also move to prevent an impending genocide of Kashmiris in IOK.”

It is worth to mention here that, the United Nations this year established August 22 as the International Day Commemorating the Victims of Acts of Violence Based on Religion or Belief, in a breakthrough move for global recognition that violence against people based on their faith is a serious and growing problem.
