The lion of Kashmir

Under the leadership of Sheikh Mohammed Abdullah, Prime Minister of Kashmir, the General Council of the National Conference met and called upon the people of the state to resist the decision of the Security Council regarding the Kashmir tangle. As the resolution did not find much enthusiasm among the local leaders and the people of Kashmir, as a whole, were prepared to fight for their rights. Sheikh Abdullah is seen here addressing a gathering in this regard. The occasion was also for 'Freedom Celebrations' being held all over Kashmir after India became free from the British rule
