Through several of unanimous resolutions stated to be passed on this occasion, the scheduled black day rally will declare that the ongoing forcibly-imposed farcical Indian elections drama in the Indian Illegally occupied state of Jammu Kashmir will clearly prove to be another abortive attempt aimed at to mislead the external world, following the complete boycott of the sham polls by the Kashmiri people as they always boycotted all similar tsocalled elections in the occupied state including the recently conducted first phase of the sham elections.

“Elections in occupied Jammu Kashmir can never be the substitute of the right of self determination of the Kashmiris”, the NEOC Chairman said while unveiling the salient features of the scheduled black day against the farsical elections, he added
