MUZAFFARABAD (Kashmir English): Information Minister of Azad Jammu and Kashmir Pir Muhammad Mazhar Saeed Shah has said that Kashmir Solidarity Day in Azad Kashmir and Pakistan will be observed on February 5 as a renewal of the pledge that the Kashmiri people will continue their struggle for freedom.
He said that Kashmiri people will continue struggle until they are given their rights according to the UN resolutions. He said people of Pakistan and Azad Kashmir are with people of Occupied Kashmir in their just cause.

Kashmir issue
On the occasion of Kashmir Day, he appealed to the world community to play its role in resolving the issue for ever-lasting peace in South Asia. He said that permanent peace and prosperity in South Asia is possible only through the resolution of Kashmir issue.
