The Organization of Islamic Cooperation condemned the unilateral abrogation of the special status of Jammu Kashmir on Friday on the third anniversary of the decision.
The OIC in a statement said that such “illegal” actions can neither alter the disputed status of Jammu #Kashmir nor prejudice the legitimate right to self-determination of the Kashmiri people.
“August 5, 2022 marks the third anniversary of the illegal and unilateral actions taken in the Illegally Occupied Jammu Kashmir, which were followed by additional unlawful measures including illegal demographic changes,” the statement read.
Recalling the resolutions of the Islamic Summit and Council of Foreign Ministers on Jammu Kashmir, the General Secretariat reaffirmed the OIC’s solidarity with the Kashmiri people in the realization of their “inalienable right” to self-determination.
The OIC also called for the respect of their fundamental freedoms and basic Human Rights and for the reversal of all “illegal and unilateral” measures taken on or after 5 August 2019.
The General Secretariat reiterates its call on the international community to take concrete steps for the resolution of the Jammu Kashmir dispute in accordance with the relevant UN Security Council resolutions, the OIC statement read.
