ISLAMABAD, (MILLAT+APP): Senior Hurriyet leaders Shabbir
Ahmad Shah and Agha Syed Hassan Al-Moosvi Al-Safvi have said that
Jammu and Kashmir is a disputed territory, and peace in South Asia
is linked to the settlement of the dispute as per aspirations of
the Kashmir peoples.
According to KMS, Shabbir Ahmad Shah in a statement issued
in Srinagar expressed strong resentment over the rallies taken out
by Hindu extremist organization Rashtriya Swayam Sewak Sangh in
Jammu and Chenab valley.
He said the move is aimed at creating a sense of fear among
the Muslims of the Jammu region. Shabbir Ahmad Shah and Agha
Moosvi condemned the statement of RSS Chief Bhagwat Sangh in which
he demanded citizenship rights for the West Pakistan refugees in
Jammu.
They said that RSS was conspiring to distort the demographic
character of the occupied territory.
The Hurriyet forum led by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Tehreek-e-
Hurriyet Jammu and Kashmir in their separate statements issued in
Srinagar condemned the use of oppressive and suppressive tactics
being used by India against the people of Kashmir.
They said that the forces had declared a full-scale war on
the people in every part of Kashmir by ransacking residences,
beating inmates and damaging household goods.
Hurriyet leaders, Naheeda Nasreen, Farida Behenji, Zamruda
Habib and Yasmeen Raja in their separate statements termed the
continued illegal detention of Dukhtaran-e-Millat Chief Aasiya
Andrabi and her associate, Fehmida Sofi as the frustration of the
authorities.
