JKPNP Holds Labour Day Events and Anti-War Protests in Bagh and Mirpur
Bagh / Mirpur, AJK (Pakistan administrated Kashmir): — On International Labour Day, the Jammu Kashmir People’s National Party (JKPNP) held a series of events and peaceful demonstrations in Pakistan-administered Jammu & Kashmir, including the districts of Bagh and Mirpur. The events focused on workers’ rights, regional peace, and growing concerns over the impact of militarization on everyday life in both side of the Ceasefire Line in Kashmir.
In Bagh, JKPNP’s local branch organized a symbolic peace rally at Azadi Chowk, where party members stood in solidarity with daily wage laborers. The rally served both as a tribute to the working class and a protest against the increasing war rhetoric in the region. Pamphlets highlighting the socio-economic struggles faced by Kashmiri laborers under occupation and conflict were distributed, and party members engaged directly with workers to listen to their concerns.
Similar Labour Day commemorations were held in Mirpur, where JKPNP emphasized the link between social justice and the broader struggle for Kashmiri rights and self-determination. Participants condemned the regional war narrative, stressing that it is the ordinary people especially workers—who bear the heaviest burden of conflict and political stagnation.

JKPNP leaders reiterated that lasting peace in South Asia cannot be achieved without addressing the political aspirations of the Kashmiri people. They stressed that the working class, often neglected in high-level diplomacy, remains central to any vision of a just and liberated society.
“The voices of our workers are not separate from our struggle—they are at its heart,” a JKPNP representative stated during the Bagh rally. “Peace and dignity for Kashmiris cannot exist alongside occupation and war.”
As Kashmir continues to navigate complex geopolitical realities, JKPNP’s May Day actions served as a reminder that the region’s future must be built not on military might, but on justice, equality, and the aspirations of its people.
