    AJK govt issues travel advisory ahead of JAAC protest, asks visitors to leave

    The Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) government issued a travel advisory from June 5 to June 20, urging outsiders to avoid the region and current visitors to leave before a protest by the Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) on June 9. The protest demands abolishing 12 Legislative Assembly seats reserved for refugees from Indian-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, a move opposed by the AJK government. Federal paramilitary troops have been deployed to prevent unrest following past violent clashes.
