ISLAMABAD: The All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) has praised the resilience, patience, stand, and determination of the Kashmiri people of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir and asserted that their sacrifices for just freedom would not go in vain.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the jailed APHC Chairman Masarat Alam Butt and senior Hurriyat leader Shabbir Ahmad Shah, in their Eid messages from New Delhi’s Tihar jail, reaffirmed the commitment of the Kashmiri people as well as the Hurriyat leadership to continue to pursue the legitimate aspirations for freedom and self-determination despite the challenges.
The leaders, while expressing concern over the ongoing state terrorism in Palestine and Kashmir, have extended their greetings to Muslims worldwide, particularly those affected by alien occupation and oppression. The messages, while condemning the ongoing deceitful tactics employed by the Indian BJP regime and its forces in occupied Kashmir, have cautioned that the Indian regime could stage a drama to defame the freedom movement and project false narratives on Kashmir resolution by showing so-called normalcy in the territory.
They prayed to Allah Almighty to alleviate their suffering and grant them freedom and peace. They hailed the people’s stance who have given sacrifices for the Kashmir cause. They also commended the efforts of Hurriyat leaders and activists, both in and out of jails, in advancing the right to self-determination demand.
