They called for the people of Kashmir to be granted what they described as their fundamental birth right to self-determination and demanded an end to India’s occupation of the region. Protesters also called for the release of Kashmiri political prisoners and the reversal of the life sentences imposed on Yasin Malik and Asiya Andrabi.
