Dialysis patients in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir staged a protest in Srinagar, condemning New Delhi's decision to close dialysis centers in Srinagar leaving the patients to die a painful death.

According to Kashmir Media Service, the decision, effective from 31st of this month will leave hundreds of patients without access to life-saving treatment.

Patients and their families gathered to express their outrage and concern, holding placards and chanting slogans against the decision.
