Hurriyat Conference (M) senior leader and chairman People’s Political Party (PPP) Er Hilal Ahamd War said, “Jammu Kashmir was a sovereign and independent nation till October 26, 1947.” “The

military action on October 27, 1947 was unconstitutional, illegal, unjustified and against the golden principles of United Nations (UN) charter. This was the darkest day in the history of

Jammu and Kashmir. From this day, army took the control of the territory of Jammu and Kashmir forcibly and against the wishes of its inhabitants,” Er War, in a statement today, said.
