To
mark the Kashmir Black Day, an event was organized by the Embassy of Pakistan
Beijing on 31st October, 2017, says a press release received here
today from Beijing, China.
The event was co-hosted by Pakistan
Embassy College Beijing and was well attended by people from all walks of life.
It started with recitation of Holy Quran, followed by the national anthem.
Students participated enthusiastically while the College Principal apprised the
audience about the Kashmir Issue.
Speaking on the occasion, Ambassador
Masood Khalid said that this event is dedicated to the revival of the painful
memory of the Black Day when Indian forces illegally occupied Jammu &
Kashmir. He observed that despite numerous resolutions passed by the United
Nations Security Council, India never fulfilled its promise of holding a
plebiscite in Kashmir.
Ambassador strongly reiterated
Pakistan’s unflinching diplomatic, political and moral support to the just
cause of the Kashmiri people. He exhorted the need to continue efforts in
sensitizing the world community about the Kashmir issue and India’s flagrant
violations of the human rights as well as UN Security Council resolutions.
The event ended with the signing of an
Expression of Solidarity with the Kashmiri people by the Ambassador and
participants.
