Kashmiris on both sides of the Line of Control and across the world are observing the Right to Self-Determination Day, today, to reaffirm their resolve to continue their freedom struggle till they achieve their right to self-determination.

On this day in 1949, the United Nations Security Council had passed a resolution recognizing the Kashmiris’ right to decide their future by themselves through UN-sponsored plebiscite.

The day will be marked by various activities including rallies, seminars and conferences across the world to remind the UN of its obligation of implementing its relevant resolutions to settle the Kashmir dispute to save the Kashmiris from the Indian brutalities.

The 05 January 1949 resolution provides the base for settlement of the Kashmir dispute. It is unfortunate that the World Body has failed to implement its resolutions, resulting in the continued sufferings of the Kashmiri people.
