A Kashmiri delegation staged a protest outside the UN office in Geneva, demanding an early peaceful solution to the Kashmir issue and the release of Kashmiri prisoners from Indian and IIOJK jails.

The delegation, led by leader of All Parties Hurriyat Conference Altaf Hussain Wani, comprising representatives from various segments of Kashmiri society, also condemned India’s illegal occupation and human rights violations in occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

Speakers at the protest highlighted the deteriorating political and human rights situation and urged the UN Commission to intervene and stop the bloodshed.

The delegation denounced the BJP’s Hindutva ideology as a significant threat to Kashmiris, posing an existential risk to their identity and rights.
