He said that KPC had been celebrating ‘Accession Day’ every year from the last one decade and would celebrate this year too with full national spirit, great enthusiasm and love at Delhi and at other places to mark the historic and prudent decision of Maharaja Hari Singh to accede the State with the rest of the country of Indian nation.
Urging the people to celebrate the revered day as like national festival by hoisting the National Flag on roof tops, bursting of crackers, distribution of sweets and holding the meetings, Kundan Kashmiri vociferously asserted that J&K was, is and shall remain an integral part of India. He also exhorted the people to maintain national unity and pride as well as defeat nefarious designs of Pakistan and her agents, anti-national and subversive elements of J&K State .
Other KPC leaders added that it was auspicious October 27,1947 which bestowed legal and Constitutional right to the State subjects of the J&K to claim themselves as proud Indians. Later KPC leaders in unison sought declaration of Oct 27 as holiday with its due observance as a J&K State function.
