𝟮𝟳 اکتوبر 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲ء | یومِ سیاہ کشمیر
کشمیری عوام کے حقِ خودارادیت کی حمایت میں تجدیدِ عہد

ڈائریکٹوریٹ جنرل آف سائنس اینڈ ٹیکنالوجی (DGST)، حکومتِ خیبر پختونخوا، یومِ سیاہ کشمیر کے موقع پر مقبوضہ جموں و کشمیر کے عوام کے ساتھ یکجہتی کا اظہار کرتا ہے۔

27 اکتوبر 1947ء کا دن تاریخِ کشمیر کا ایک اہم موڑ ہے، جب بھارتی افواج سری نگر میں داخل ہوئیں۔ یہ دن کشمیری عوام کی مشکلات، قربانیوں اور اپنے بنیادی حقوق کے حصول کے لیے جاری جدوجہد کی یاد دلاتا ہے۔

DGST کشمیری عوام کے حقِ خودارادیت کی حمایت کا اعادہ کرتا ہے اور اس امر پر زور دیتا ہے کہ مسئلہ کشمیر کا منصفانہ اور پُرامن حل اقوامِ متحدہ کی متعلقہ قراردادوں اور کشمیری عوام کی امنگوں کے مطابق تلاش کیا جائے۔

کشمیر کے عوام کے لیے امن، انصاف، وقار اور حقِ خودارادیت — ہمارا اصولی مؤقف۔
