Pakistan observations of Kashmir Black Day

On October 27, 2026, officials in Islamabad organized a solidarity walk on Constitution Avenue to mark the 79th anniversary of Kashmir Black Day. Led by high-ranking officials including Foreign Secretary Asim Iftikhar Ahmad and Foreign Minister Senator Mohammad Ishaq Dar, the event commemorated the 1947 arrival of Indian forces in Srinagar. Participants reaffirmed Pakistan’s diplomatic and legal support for the people of Jammu and Kashmir, calling for the international community to uphold United Nations resolutions regarding the right to self-determination.

Following the domestic commemorations, Pakistani diplomatic missions in Germany and Canada held related events. In Berlin, the Embassy of Pakistan hosted a seminar with the diaspora and academics to condemn human rights violations in the region. In Canada, the High Commission in Ottawa and various consulates organized documentary screenings and photographic exhibitions. These international efforts emphasized that the Kashmir dispute remains a standing issue on the United Nations Security Council agenda.
