Key Questions Answered
The Jammu Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) warned Pakistan's military against deploying security forces in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, declaring that any fresh troop deployment would be treated as an external attack on the region.
The JAAC has laid down key conditions for negotiations, including the withdrawal of security forces from urban areas, the release of detainees, the restoration of civil liberties, and accountability for deaths during the protests.
The protests stem from grievances over governance, subsidies, and political representation, including opposition to 12 reserved AJK Legislative Assembly seats for refugees. The agitation escalated following a severe crackdown by authorities after demonstrations intensified in June.
