313

The Indian Independence Day is being observed as Black Day across Pakistan and on both sides of the Line of Control (LoC) today.

Black Day is being observed in protest against India’s action to change the special status of the disputed Kashmir.  Earlier, the federal government had announced they will observe the Indian Independence Day as Black Day across the country.

Black flags will be hoisted on rooftops and vehicles across Pakistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK), while protest rallies will be taken out in all small and major cities of the country to highlight the plight of oppressed Kashmiris who are under strict curfew and communication blackout since August 5.
