The Indian Supreme Court is expected to announce its final decision pertaining to the Article 35-A tomorrow

KARACHI/SRINAGAR: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has vowed to build colonies on theeastern corner sideof the Indian-occupied Kashmir (IoK) in what is being reportedly called an attempt to suppress the Muslim residents, Geo News reported.

By doing away with the Article 35-A, Modi would provide non-Kashmiri people the right to purchase land in the IoK— a decision that the All Parties Hurriyat Conference has strongly voiced its opinion against.

In this regard, there was a valley-wide strike on Saturday at the Hurriyat Conference's appeal against the alleged attempt to turn the Muslim majority into a minority.

However, the Indian Supreme Court is expected to announce its final decision pertaining to the Article 35-A tomorrow (Monday).
