They can use social media to inform the whole world about the Indian occupation of Jammu and Kashmir and human rights violations in occupied Kashmir. Former ambassador Naghmana Hashmi said that one Indian soldier is deployed for every five citizens in Occupied Kashmir. India is committing war crimes and targeting children and youth with pellet guns, which is the worst violation of human rights. The silence of the international community on these crimes is very sad. He said that India had taken the Kashmir issue to the United Nations itself and had promised to give the right of self-determination to the Kashmiri people, but it not only always broke the promise but also International laws have also been violated. The Kashmiri people have been making sacrifices for the right to self-determination for 75 years, but the political leadership must come on the same page. The solution to the Kashmir problem is necessary for long-lasting peace in the region. India needs to solve the Kashmir problem. It will be necessary to come to the negotiation table. Professor Dr. Shaheen Akhtar said that the situation in Occupied Kashmir is getting worse and worse. Politics, culture and economy have been badly affected in Occupied Kashmir. India occupied Jammu and Kashmir on the basis of Maharaja’s fake accession. India changed the special status of Occupied Kashmir by abolishing Articles 370 and 35A of the Constitution. It changed the proportion of Muslim population by issuing state subjects to Indian citizens. It is going on. Kashmiri youth are being subjected to target killing. Print and electronic media and social media are completely blacked out to hide Indian atrocities in Occupied Kashmir. At the end of the seminar, a question and answer session was also held.
