Government Approves Special Courts for Overseas Kashmiris in Azad Kashmir

MIRPUR: The Azad Kashmir government has approved the establishment of special courts aimed at facilitating overseas Kashmiris. This decision, made during a recent cabinet meeting, underscores the government’s commitment to addressing the legal needs of its diaspora.

In addition to the courts, the government has allocated 2% of its budget to promote sports activities and has approved the establishment of a Gemstone Excellence Center to boost the mining sector. Officials emphasized that these initiatives are part of a broader strategy to enhance economic opportunities and support for the Kashmiri community abroad.

This move is expected to significantly improve access to justice for overseas Kashmiris, who often face challenges in navigating legal systems from abroad. The establishment of special courts is seen as a vital step in strengthening ties with the diaspora and ensuring their rights are protected.

Looking ahead, the government plans to implement these initiatives swiftly, with further discussions scheduled in the coming weeks to finalize operational details and funding allocations.
