April 04, 2020

Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has slammed the new domicile law introduced by India in occupied Kashmir in order to change demographic composition of the territory.

In a tweet, the OIC's Independent Permanent Human Rights Commission said the agency condemns the promulgation of illegal ‘Jammu and Kashmir Reorganization Order 2020’ by India which is an attempt to alter demographic and geographic status of the occupied territory.

It stressed that the latest Indian action is violation of international human rights and humanitarian laws, including the Fourth Geneva Convention, OIC and UN Security Council resolutions.

The Commission demanded of India to stop human rights violations in occupied Kashmir, abolish draconian laws and give Kashmiris their right to self-determination.
