On August 5, 2019, the Indian government revoked the special status granted to Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) under Article 370 of the Indian Constitution
On the occasion of the second anniversary of the revocation of Kashmir’s special status by the Modi government, Pakistani singer Shehzad Roy has released a song Unn Kay Naam for Kashmiris to reflect the nation’s thoughts using Faiz Ahmed’s poem.
On August 5, 2019, the Indian government revoked the special status granted to Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) under Article 370 of the Indian Constitution.
A provision of the constitution said that since J&K is a disputed territory on the UN Charter, its people have yet to determine their political future.
However, the Modi regime forcefully integrated the region in India and ended its statehood.

Taking to his social media pages, Shehzad Roy took up the cudgels for the sufferings of the people in the disputed territory.
For the sake of children’s future on both sides of the border, the social activist wants to send a message of peace to India.
