The protesters strongly rejected Indian unilateral decision to abolish special status for Indian held Kashmir (IHK), adding that people of occupied Kashmir would never stop their struggle for right of self determination.

The demonstrators said that this demonstration was being held at an occasion when the United Nations Security Council was holding a consultative session to discuss current situation of Kashmir, expressing the hope that the world community would come forward and provide relief to Kashmiris who have been facing Indian State Terrorism since decades.
