Commenting on the intensified military operation by the Indian occupation army in Illegally Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir( IIOJK) during the holy month of Ramazan, he said that there was no military solution of Kashmir, which needed to be resolve under UN Security Council resolution by holding a fair and free plebiscite, AJK President office said.

He said that the people of Kashmir had been sacrificing for their freedom and rights for two centuries and they would continue their struggle till they get the right to live a dignified life with freedom.

Expressing his deep concern over growing incidents of fake encounters in IIOJK, the president said that the Indian army had intensified its atrocities and was killing innocent youth by falsely dubbing them as the terrorist.

India, he said, through its false narrative gave an impression to the world that it was fighting terrorism in the held valley. The 900,000 Indian troops were not combating terrorism in IIOJK rather they were engaged in massacring the unarmed civilian of the occupied territory, the president added.
