New Delhi, July 21:
The Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) on Monday said that the voluntary shutdown and wheel jam will continue in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) with large number of people present at the protest sit-ins. “We demand implementation of our recognised demands — with patience, wisdom, unity and solidarity, and steadfastness, we will succeed in our struggle — no compromise of any kind will be made on the basic points in negotiations,” the JAAC noted on X.
It also appealed to the people to come out and protest on July 23, calling it a “very important” day. “An appeal from the Mirpur and Muzaffarabad Divisions that July 23 is a very important day — come out of your homes and protest in full force. Pray for the elevation of the ranks of your great martyrs and the success of the movement — People of Poonch Division, participate in the protest sit-ins and hold programmes at your nearest stations — July 23 is a very important day — an important announcement will be made on July 23,” Sardar Umar Nazir Kashmiri wrote from JAAC.
