Comprising hundreds of workers, industrialists and people from all walks of life, the participants of the rally raised slogans against India and pledged to stand by with the Pakistan army if India imposed a war to find excuse for occupying the Kashmir state permanently. They were holding banners and placards with slogans of freeing Kashmir from Indian occupation. They also pledged to join National Kashmir Alliance, as its volunteers for raising voice for Kashmiris right to self determination and freedom from Indian occupation of the last seventy years.
Addressing the participants, Muhammad Ali Durrani warned that India was trying to find excuses to wage war on Pakistan under some pretext for justifying its forced merger of Kashmir state in India. He said if the war was imposed on Pakistan, entire population of 220 million would back up their valiant army in shape of volunteers of Kashmir. He expressed sorrow that it was the 26th day Indian army had turned entire Kashmir valley into an open air prison and torture centre where men, women and children were being killed, raped and handicapped without the world acknowledging it since all communication links had been shut down.
Durrani termed Modi as worst kind of mass murderer the world had ever witnessed, worse than Hitler and Halaku Khan, and said the increasing genocide of Kashmiri Muslims by Indian army was turning them more resilient and they were openly raising slogans of joining Pakistan even before Indian pellet guns and other banned weaponry Indian army was using to crush their freedom struggle. Durrani warned that it was time Delhi could no more keep Kashmiris as subjects, adding that NKA was determined to raise the issue of Kashmir all over the world through its peaceful volunteers, to make it the voice of entire world and to bring it to the international court of justice for providing freedom to 130 million Muslims from the worst killer of mankind. He said NKA struggle would make the voice of Kashmir so high that it would not only reach the ears of Trump, Putin and Modi, but also become the voice of the entire world population. Durrani told media that NKA had begun the registration of Kashmir volunteers from all over the world and soon it would bring all the believers of human rights in the whole world to join this platform. He warned that soon NKA volunteers would march towards Delhi and Modi government could not stand in its way.
