Pakistan has always stood by the people of Kashmir, not just to respect the humanity but also due to the brotherhood that we Muslims share. Now considering the ongoing dispute between Pakistan and India over the situation in Kashmir, Pakistan has banned almost every kind of Indian representation in Pakistan, especially Indian content on TV, radio and cinemas.
After the implementation of such acts and representing our narrative on every possible platform, Prime Minister Imran Khan has now called every Pakistani to come out tomorrow noon at 12 for thirty minutes to stand in solidarity with Kashmir and against Indian fascist oppression.
I want all Pakistanis to come out tomorrow 12 noon -12.30 pm to show solidarity with the Kashmiri people and send the Kashmiris in IOK a clear message that the entire Pakistani nation stands in solidarity with them & against Indian fascist oppression, the inhumane 24-day curfew,

the daily injuring & killing of Kashmiri civilians, incl women & children – all part of the ethnic cleansing agenda of the Modi Govt. & it's illegal annexation of IOK. The plan to change demography of IOK is a war crime under 4th Geneva Convention.

We must send a strong message to Kashmiris that our nation stands resolutely behind them. So I am asking all Pakistanis for half an hour tomorrow stop whatever you are doing & come out on the road to show solidarity with the Kashmiri people.
