Pakistan and Kashmiri activists in the United States have decided to raise the human rights violations being committed by the occupation Indian forces in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir at the international level.

It was decided at a meeting in New York attended by the Chairman Kashmir Committee Shehryar Afridi, Pakistan's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Munir Akram, Secretary General of the Washington-based World Kashmir Awareness Forum  Dr Ghulam Nabi Fai,  Dr Ghulam Nabi Mir of Ohio University, Dr Imtiaz Khan of George Washington University and others.

The meeting expressed the resolve to expand the level of engagement with the US think tanks, academicians, US lawmakers and officials and sensitize them on the Indian genocide plans and demographic changes in the occupied territory.

The meeting also expressed concerns about the Indian plans to eliminate the entire Kashmiri leaders languishing in Indian jails and called for their immediate shifting to the jails in Jammu and Kashmir.

Shehryar Afridi said the Pakistani Nation stands firm with the Kashmiri people in their just struggle.
