Re: Feb 5: Kashmir Solidarity Day

to show solidarity with the people of occupied Kashmir and their ongoing struggle for independence, a political stand I suppose.

Re: Feb 5: Kashmir Solidarity Day

no particular reason why its on a specific day i guess...its one of those 'awareness' holidays. no point in it being a public holiday though, u can spread more awareness of it in schools/institutions on that day like other social/health awareness days like breast cancer awareness day, world aids day, international womens day, anti-narcotics day etc etc.

It is celebrated to keep the awareness/propaganda/issue of Kashmir alive.
