ISLAMABAD, (MILLAT ONLINE/APP): The Chairman of Hurriyet forum,
Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, has said that the sacrifices rendered by
Kashmiri youth for the Kashmir cause will not be allowed to go
waste and their mission will be accomplished at all costs.
Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, who continues to be under house arrest,
in a statement issued in Srinagar said that it was the collective
mission and responsibility of resistance leadership and the people
of Kashmir to honour and safeguard the sacrifices by staying firm
on commitment towards the cherished goal of freedom, Kashmir Media Service reported.
The Mirwaiz denounced the use of brute force and unleashing
of terror in Hayatpora, Chadoora, and adjoining areas by Indian
forces on the people who were protesting against the killing of
two youth.
He also castigated the puppet authorities for banning the
launching ceremony to be held at Hyderpora of the book authored by
the APHC Chairman, Syed Ali Gilani, on great poet and philosopher,
Allama Muhammad Iqbal.
He said that the puppet authorities were so sacred of the
resistance leadership that they were not even allowing them to
organize purely literary functions. He said that it was high time
for Indian civil society and intellectuals to take a stand on such
repression.
Mirwaiz Umar Farooq also flayed the arrest and slapping of
draconian Public Safety Act (PSA) against a youth Ashiq Hussain of
Maisuma. He said, “The lawless law was one more weapon in the
arsenal of our oppressors to intimidate and crush us.”
The forum Chairman condemned the attack on five members of a
nomadic family and forcibly snatching of their livestock by the
cow vigilantes in Reasi district of Jammu and said that it
reflected the growing immunity the rightwing Hindu organizations
enjoyed under the present PDP-BJP regime.
