The lands of Pakistan were green with the blood of Kashmiris, she said and added that the Kashmir issue was the result of the unjust partition in 1947, which had not been resolved to date.
Mushal added that the Hurriyat leader and my husband Yasin Malik were imprisoned in Tihar Jail for the freedom of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
“The Kashmiris are fighting against the ten lacs occupying Indian army while dozens of Kashmiris are martyred every day,” adding despite this, there has been no decline in Kashmir’s freedom movement.

Today, we should renew the pledge to strengthen the country to the ranks of the world’s developed countries.
