AZAD JAMMU KASHMIR: In a significant development today, Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar has confirmed his participation in a special session of the Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) legislative assembly. The agenda of the meeting revolves around discussing the aftermath of the recent verdict by the Indian Supreme Court on the matter of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
The decision to convene the special session and the subsequent participation of PM Kakar were solidified during a high-level meeting between the Caretaker Prime Minister and his counterpart from AJK, Chaudhry Anwar-ul-Haq, held in Islamabad.

The special session is expected to be a platform for constructive dialogue and strategic planning to navigate the complexities arising from the recent legal developments. It is anticipated that PM Kakar will articulate the government’s stance on the issue and collaborate with the legislative assembly to formulate a unified response to the evolving situation in IIOJK.
This diplomatic initiative underscores the importance of coordinated efforts between the federal government and the AJK leadership to safeguard the interests of the people in the region. The international community will be closely watching the outcomes of this special session, as the leaders navigate the complex geopolitical landscape in the aftermath of the Indian Supreme Court’s ruling.
Yesterday, Pakistan categorically rejected the judgment announced by the Supreme Court of India on the status of IIOJK.
Addressing a news conference in Islamabad on Tuesday, Caretaker Foreign Minister Jalil Abbas Jilani said the judicial endorsement of India’s unilateral and illegal actions of 5 August 2019 is a travesty of justice, based on distorted historical and legal arguments.
