Afzal Khan MP, the chief guest, lauded TeK leadership for successfully uniting various political parties on a single platform in support of Kashmir.

He emphasized that political representation provides a crucial opportunity to effectively advocate against injustices in Kashmir and around the world.<\/p>\n

He called on the global feminist movement to address the plight of Kashmiri women, particularly the \u201chalf widows\u201d\u2014a term referring to women whose husbands have been forcibly disappeared, leaving them in a state of uncertainty about their fate.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Kayani further highlighted a statement made by the Indian Consul General in New York, in which he suggested that India should adopt Israel\u2019s model of displacing Palestinians through illegal settlements to alter the region\u2019s demographic structure. Kayani warned that India is replicating this strategy in Kashmir, violating the Fourth Geneva Convention and international law. He urged the global community to take immediate action to stop India\u2019s demographic terrorism in Kashmir.<\/p>\n
