Youm-e-Istehsal Kashmir Youm-e-Istehsal Kashmir (The Day of Exploitation / یومِ استحصال کشمیر) is a National Day observed by Pakistan and People of Kashmir throughout the world on 5th of August. It was on the 5th of August 2019 that the special constitutional status of IIOJ&K was scrapped by the Modi government and revoked Article 370 of the Indian Constitution.

The Pakistani government has declared August 5 as Youm-i-Istehsal (the day of exploitation) of occupied Kashmir's residents, in order to register protest against Indian government's decision to strip occupied Kashmir of its autonomy.

What is Article 370: The article allowed the state a certain amount of autonomy - its own constitution, a separate flag and freedom to make laws. Foreign affairs, defence, and communications remained the preserve of the central government.

As a result, Jammu and Kashmir could make its own rules relating to permanent residency, ownership of property and fundamental rights. It could also bar Indians from outside the state from purchasing property or settling there.
