MUZAFFARABAD: Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) President Sardar Masood Khan on Saturday said that at a time when the world was celebrating World Environment Day, India is intentionally destroying the fragile ecosystem in Illegally Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K).
In a message on the occasion of World Environment Day, he said Kashmir is distinctive in the world due to beautiful forests, lush green valleys, rivers, waterfalls, biodiversity of flora and fauna. But unfortunately, the one million occupation army of India is busy building cantonments and military garrisons by relentlessly destroying the forests, polluting the rivers, lakes, and wetlands.
“IIOJ&K’s coniferous forests, wetlands, rivers, glaciers, lakes are all under threat due to the rapacious exploitation of the fragile ecosystems and massive land grab by the Indian occupation authorities. United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) should declare it an environmental disaster zone,” the President
