Press Release
In protest of the Constitution day of India which took place on January 26, 1950, a protest has been organized and is being held on Sunday February 01, 2015 from 11:00 AM to 02:00 PM at Pearson Convention centre situated at 2638 Steeles Avenue East Brampton, Ontario, Canada.
It is critical to note, that despite “celebrating” constitution day, and claiming to be the largest democracy in the world, the Indian government is and has for decades illegally occupied many different territories including Maqbooza Kashmir, or Indian occupied Kashmir. Through these illegal occupations, the Indian government has killed hundreds of thousands. In Maqbooza Kashmir alone, over 200,000, and in Punjab (Khalistan) more than 270,000 innocent civilians have been murdered.
As such, we must realize that in order for injustice to persist, all it takes in the silence of the just. Let us not remain silent. Let us raise our voices against oppression under the name of human rights and humanity for those who have no voice of their own as we cannot stand by idly as on one front the Indian government commits atrocities and genocide, and on the other, celebrates its constitution as a so called peaceful “democracy”.
