“The day is not far when the whole Kashmir will become Pakistan. No one can stop freedom movement in Indian Kashmir,” the prime minister said while addressing a rally in Muzaffarabad capital of Pakistani Kashmir.

He said, 'People of Pakistan stand firm with their brethren of Indian Kashmir and will never give up their support to Kashmiris.

Earlier Pakistan has categorically rejected New Delhi's claim that Indian Kashmir is its integral part. In a statement, Pakistan Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nafees Zakaria said Jammu and Kashmir is an internationally recognized disputed State as per UN Security Council resolutions, reports ISNA.

On July 20 'Black Day' was observed in Pakistan and mass rallies across the country were held to express solidarity with the Kashmiri people.

In the wake of clashes between protesters and security forces in Indian Kashmir during the past 14 days, 46 people have been killed and scores of other wounded.
