Kashmir Solidarity Day In 1990
The first Kashmir Solidarity Day was observed in 1990.
This day marks the commemoration of the sacrifices that the people of Kashmir have made for freedom and the suffering they have endured since 1950s.
In the light of recent events, Kashmir Day is more relevant, significant and forceful than ever before. Times are changing and the world is waking up to the cause of Kashmir.
