President Alvi confers Nishan-i-Pakistan to Syed Ali Geelani:
A Hurriyat leader received the award from the president on behalf of Geelani at an investiture ceremony in Aiwan-e-Sadr, after hoisting the national flag on Pakistan's 74th Independence Day.
First Lady Samina Alvi, Senate President Sadiq Sanjrani, National Assembly President Asad Qaiser, Federal Ministers and Heads of Services attended the ceremony.
Addressing the flag-raising ceremony, President Alvi expressed solidarity with Kashmir, which he said has faced the worst human rights violations at the hands of the Indian occupation forces, particularly after the August 5, 2020 move to annex the region.
He reiterated Pakistan's support for Kashmiris in their cause, adding that Pakistan will not leave Kashmir alone. He said the Kashmir issue has been addressed at the UN Security Council four times in the past year, which is a huge success of Pakistan's foreign policy.
