Kashmir is disputed: Geelani to Sushma Swaraj

GK NEWS NETWORK

Srinagar, July 24: While terming the statement “entire Jammu & Kashmir is ours” issued by the Indian foreign minister Sushma Swaraj as the arrogance of power of this country, Chair-man of Hurriyat Conference (G) Syed Ali Shah Geelani has said that it is a very old rhetoric of India about the Jammu & Kashmir and which is just based on the military power.

Terming the Kashmir related statement of Sushma Swaraj as her political bank-ruptcy, Geelani said, “If she

is true in her claims then why is India afraid of holding ref-erendum in Jammu and Kashmir and why are their paid local agents hiding behind the more than 10 lakh armed forces. Kashmir is a disputed territory and Kashmiri people are strug-gling against India’s control since 1947 this fact is known to everybody but the Indian rulers are scared to face this truth and they have become habitual of ignoring the ground realities.”

Referring to the visit of Chief Minister Mehbooba

Mufti to Kupwara, Geelani said, “Fami-lies of the martyred youths were forced to meet the chief

minister. It’s deplor-able. These customary

tours are carried out to protect the chair of power and these power hungry people have nothing to do with the miseries of the common people.”

“Hurriyat congratulates those Kupwara people who refused to meet the murder-ers of their beloved kins. Kashmiris has now become a sensitive nation and they are fully aware of these

kinds of traps.”While commenting over

the statement of Mehbooba Mufti that “Kashmiris are being pushed towards eco-nomic and educational depri-vation”, Geelani said, “Real culprits of our miserable economic condition are these pro-Indian politicians who for their petty and meager ben-efits have sold every asset and resources of the state at the hands of the New Delhi. Our water resources are not only enough to make us self-reliant but if these are returned to us back we can also assist India to address its poverty and backwardness.”

Kashmiris don’t trust Indian leaders: Yasin Malik

Kashmir unrest indigenous : MirwaizSrinagar, July 24: Chairman of

Hurriyat Confer-ence (M) Mirwaiz

Umar Farooq on Sunday said India's bid to blame Pakistan

for the "current revolt" in the Kash-

mir Valley warranted no response.Mirwaiz told IANS here that the

two-day visit by the Home Minister that ended on Sunday and "his com-ments are insignificant".

He said New Delhi's "propagan-da" on the Kashmir issue that the "current revolt" was sponsored by Pakistan "is so worn out and half-witted that it does not even warrant a response".

He said the separatist leadership - including Syed Ali Shah Geelani and Yasin Malik - believed that the "Kashmiri struggle for freedom like all freedom struggles in the world is both indigenous and sacred".

The Mirwaiz said the separatist leadership "condemns the killing spree" by forces, injuring thousands and blinding more than 150.

He said it was a blot on the face of humanity that a country "which executes such barbarism prides itself as the world's largest democracy".

Srinagar, July 24: The incar-cerated Chairman of Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front Muhammad Yasin Malik on Sunday said that visit of Indian leaders to Kashmir and other acts won’t make any dif-ference as Kashmiris “don’t trust” them.

In a statement Malik said, “ Indian home minister’s Kashmir visit and chief minister shedding crocodile tears that too after killing more than 50 inno-cents, injuring more than 4000, among whom more than 200 are feared to have lost their eye sight, and after placing millions of humans under strict curfew for 17 days and crippling their lives by snapping mobile phones, internet and cable TV, is nothing but an eye wash to hoodwink Indian people and interna-tional community.”

“Indian leaders and their Kashmi-ri agents can deceive some people by these hypocritical tactics but cannot betray Kashmiri people and defeat their resolve to get freedom. Killing Kash-miris and putting blame on others and continues state of denial of Indian leadership, their Kashmiri stooges

and biased media will never succeed in defeating our freedom struggle,”

Malik said.Malik, who is languishing

in police custody from last 18 days, said, “ Kashmir visit of Rajnath Singhwas a s useless

effort.”Malik said, “ Rajnath Singh

and other Indian leaders have time and again issued statements congratu-lating their forces, encouraging them and putting blame on the oppressed instead of oppressors.”

He said, “Before taking flight to Sri-nagar Indian home minister provided a clean chit to killer forces by stating that they are exercising maxim restraint against growing Kashmiri attacks and therefore his visit can deliver nothing but encouragements to mass killers in uniform.”

He said, “India and its leaders and media know fully that everyone in Kashmir is a staunch supporter of freedom and resistance and ongoing protest movements are aimed at rais-ing voice for freedom only ,but India, its Kashmiri agents and biased media are is in a continuous state of denial and are trying to deny reality by shutting their eyes.”

Hold unconditional dialogue with all stakeholders: Tarigami tells Rajnath Singh

GK NEWS NETWORK

Srinagar, July 24: The CPI-M leader and MLA Kulgam M Y Tarigami on Sunday urged the central government to open an "unconditional dialogue" with all the stakeholders in Jammu and Kashmir, "par-ticularly the voices of dis-sent", to bring peace in the violence-ravaged state.

The lone Communist law-maker in the state assembly and some of his party leaders met Home Minister Rajnath Singh here.

The Home Minister was on a 2-day visit to the Kash-mir Valley in the wake of the violent unrest that has left

more than 48 people dead in clashes between protesters and forces.

Tarigami blamed the authorities in Jammu and Kash-mir for the "unfortunate deaths of dozens of unarmed civilians" and called for an "immediate end to this use of brutal force".

He said he urged Rajnath Singh "to initiate a process of unconditional dialogue with all the stakeholders, particularly the voices of dissent" in the state, refer-ring to separatist leaders in Kashmir.

Tarigami said he told Rajnath Singh that the "people

of Kashmir believe that they have been ignored time and again and whatever promises have been made have not been fulfilled".

He said "those who are at the helm must

draw lessons and understand the serious implications of the situation" that the new unrest has unfolded in the valley. "We are afraid if appropriate response is not evolved, the situation may worsen in the coming future."

He urged the central gov-ernment to take immediate measures "which can treat the wounds and address the injured psyche of Kashmiris. It brooks no delay".

Join Kashmir movement: Aasiya to bureaucrats Srinagar, July 24: Dukhtarani Millat Chief Aasiya Andrabi has appreciated the people for showing luke warm response to Rajnath Singh’s visit.

In a statement here Aasiya said, “No oppressed Kashmiri accepted to meet him despite pressure tactics of the oppressor, which in itself is an eye opener for India to understand the writing on the wall.”

She said that Rajnath’s forced meeting with the families of the deceased is nothing more than “adding salt to the wounds”

She said, “India is continuing the genocide of our people irrespective of the age and gender under a well planned strategy. On one hand our young buds are being blinded and on the other hand they are talking of their education, which is the highest hypocrisy on their part.”

She lauded the resilience of people and asked them to continue the same in future.

She appealed bureaucrats to join the resis-tance movement without any delay which has taken the shape of the mass movement after the death of Burhan Wani. GKNN

Ban pellet guns: Hashim Qureshi Srinagar, July 22: Jammu Kashmir Democratic Party (DLP) chairman Hashim Qureshi today expressed grief and pain over the killing and wounding of innocent people, demanding immediate ban on the use of pellet guns.

“It is highly regrettable that the forces are using pellet guns to disperse the mobs which have snatched their eyesight and inflicted other eye ailments. Whether it is a punishment to Kash-mirs to blind them because Mahatma Gandhi had seen a ray of light in Kashmir at a time when entire India was dragged to the violence and destruction. I express surprise whether the vast Indian establishment has no means other than firing

straight at the mobs to disperse them Under rec-ognized norms the forces, whenever permitted to fire, have to shoot at legs only but in the case of present and past experience, forces have been throwing these norms to winds and firing straight above the waist which means instant fatal-ity. This has always been happening whenever there are demonstrations in Kash-mir,” Hashim Qureshi, said in a statement.

He demanded immedi-ate ban on use of pellet and that all the victims of pellet guns be provided specialized treatment. He demanded compensation for the vic-tims to the tune of Rs five lakhs. GKNN
