Kashmiris continue to denounce illegal, immoral and unconstitutional step, which India took on this day in 2019 to strip Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir of its special status.

According to Kashmir Media Service, since the abrogation of Article 370 of the Indian constitution in August, last year, the Modi-led fascist Indian government continues to adhere to the policy of coercion, torture and deception.

Modi-led Indian BJP govt continues to undermine the Muslim majority character of Jammu and Kashmir by changing its demography.
