Prime Minister Imran Khan will visit Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) on August 14, Pakistan’s Independence Day, and also address its legislative assembly, said Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi on Monday, days after India scrapped Article 370 of the Constitution that gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir and bifurcated the state into two Union Territories.
Addressing the media in Muzaffarabad in the PoK where he celebrated Eid al-Adha and visited a refugee camp, Qureshi said the entire "Pakistani nation and political leadership is united on the issue of Kashmir and one voice will be sounded on August 14 in support of Kashmiris."

Pakistan has announced that it will observe August 14 as 'Kashmir Solidarity Day' and August 15 as 'Black Day'.
