ISLAMABAD: The Kashmiris in the Indian Held Kashmir would observe 27 October as the darkest day in the history of Kashmir’s history.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the joint resistance leadership has said that 27th October 1947 is the darkest day in the history of Kashmir when India in violation of all international norms and democratic values landed its troops in Jammu and Kashmir and occupied the territory against the will of Kashmiri people.

The statement said that people of Kashmir were demanding fulfillment of promises, which the first Indian Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, had made with them while addressing a gathering at Lal Chowk in Srinagar. He had pledged that the Kashmir dispute would be resolved as per resolutions of the United Nations.

He asked the international community to take notice of Indian brutalities in the occupied territory.
