SRINAGAR: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, All
Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) senior leader Ghulam Ahmed Gulzar has
said that India has usurped all political, social and religious rights of
people of the territory.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Ghulam Ahmed Gulzar in a statement
issued in Srinagar said in the presence of over one million trigger-happy
troops equipped with sweeping powers under draconian laws, the besieged
Kashmiris are living agonized life. To punish the Kashmiris for demanding
their universally accepted right to self-determination, Indian troops are
committing heinous crimes against humanity, he added.
He said these dreaded forces have martyred nearly one hundred thousand
Kashmiris irrespective of age and gender for the last over three decades.
Thousands Kashmiris have been crippled through physical and mental torture
and thousands are languishing in jails in fabricated charges which include
APHC leaders, human rights activists, journalists and ordinary Kashmiris, he
lamented.
APHC senior leader said after 5th August 2019, the Modi-led fascist Indian
government is trying to impose its devilish Hindutva on Kashmiris and
deprive them of their unique identity and culture.
Ghulam Ahmad Gulzar termed Kashmir as a political and humanitarian dispute
and appealed to the people who believe in human divinity to support the just
struggle of Kashmiris’ self-determination.
He deplored that in the critical situation when life, honour, existence,
culture and identity of the oppressed Kashmiris were at stake the criminal
silence of the world was adding insult to the injury. It is the
responsibility of people with conscience all over the world to raise their
voice against the injustice in Kashmir, he maintained.
Meanwhile, All Parties Hurriyat Conference Azad Jammu and Kashmir (APHC-AJK)
chapter leader Muhammad Sultan Butt in a statement in Islamabad expressed
concern over the duplicity of the world powers and said criminal silence of
the world has emboldened India to increase its inhuman activities against
Kashmiris, Indian Muslims and other minorities.
