In Indian Occupied Kashmir, a complete shutdown was observed on Sunday in protest against mass arrests and violent repression by Indian forces, as well as New Delhi’s attempts to rescind special rights of Kashmiris by repealing Article 35-A of the Indian Constitution. Moreover, Indian authorities have deployed 100 additional companies of paramilitary forces and imposed curfew-like restrictions in the area. Heavy contingents of Indian police and the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) have been deployed in almost all cities of occupied Kashmir. “India was threatening Pakistan despite its illegal occupation of Jammu and Kashmir and barbaric genocide of helpless Kashmiris by its troops,” she added. The occupying force also booked an illegally detained youth, Muzamil Ganai, under the draconian Public Safety Act.
