<\/p>\nLONDON (PNI) While the fascist Narendra Modi regime was brandishing weaponry on the roads in New Delhi, a clear sign that the RSS government signifies terror across South Asia, the India state faced strong demonstrations across the UK on Thursday.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The demonstrations marking India\u2019s so-called Republic Day as Black Day saw Kashmiris, members of Sikh community, and their allies pressing the British government to intervene and halt ongoing genocide in Indian Illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIoJK).<\/p>\n
Demonstrations were held outside Indian High Commission in London and Indian Consulate in Birmingham.<\/p>\n

Raising slogans against the so-called UAPA, protestors said such laws reflect colonial mindset of Indian rulers.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe black laws like the UAPA have no place in modern and enlightened era that is 21st century,\u201d said Fahim Kayani, leader of Tehreek-e-Kashmir UK.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut India has been a misleading member of comity of nations and has exploited west\u2019s so-called war on terror to suppress Kashmiris and other communities especially Sikh members,\u201d Kayani said.<\/p>\n
The Kashmir diaspora leader said while Kashmiris remain caged by one million Indian occupying forces in IIoJK, \u201cIndia, if it was a civilized nation, has no right to celebrate its Republic Day.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOnly those nations who respect wishes and aspirations of other nations, like Kashmiris, have a right to celebrate their freedom,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Pointing out India\u2019s blatant misuse of its colonial laws, the demonstrators said: \u201cIf speaking for ones rights is terrorism, then India\u2019s Gandhi was the terrorist of the century.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFascist Indian regime labelling Dr Asif Dar, a renowned physician, is nothing but a move aimed at scaring Kashmiris who live in diaspora,\u201d Kayani said.<\/p>\n
Kayani said Dr Dar speaks against the illegal Indian occupation of Kashmir and is an ardent supporter of non-violent resistance movement to end illegal Indian occupation in Kashmir.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy is India so scared of Kashmiris,\u201d Kayani asked. \u201cIf India is so confident about its credentials as a democracy, New Delhi should immediately allow Kashmiris exercise their right to self-determination.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Indian illegal move against Dr Asif Dar is basically expression of long arm of Indian state which is going after Kashmiris around the world. No civilized nation can ever think of following people in other nations\u2026 Such steps by Indian regime is a slap on international community as India has overstepped its mandate as a member of comity of nations,\u201d Kayani said.<\/p>\n
Addressing the demonstrations, the Sikh leader Ranjit Singh Srai condemned India\u2019s holding of Republic Day celebrations.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis day in 1950 when Indian state adopted its constitution basically legitimized its theft of the right of self-determination from the peoples of the Punjab and Kashmir,\u201d Srai said<\/p>\n
Srai said time has come all the communities resisting Indian occupation of their lands should unite in action and force international community to hold India accountable.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor any success, grass roots momentum is needed in western nations especially Europe where the local governments must be informed vile acts of Indian state i.e. colonial polices like in Kashmir and the Punjab,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Tehreek-e-Kashmir UK & Punjabi organisations together handed in the memorandum to release Kashmiri political prisoners at 10DowningStreet.<\/p>\n
