Srinagar, October 29, 2010: All Parties Hurriyat Conference Chairman, Syed Ali Shah Geelani, has strongly condemned the molestation of two Kashmiri women in Pattan by the personnel of Special Operations Group (SOG) of Indian forces.

Syed Ali Shah Geelani in a statement issued in Srinagar said that the occupation authorities had regrouped and activated the notorious SOG. “Kashmiris cannot tolerate if anybody even casts an eye on the women,” he added.

He said that the authorities were reactivating the SOG to suppress the Kashmiris’ ongoing "Quit Kashmir Movement" (QKM) and to harass them. “During the last four months, people of Pattan have rendered unflinching sacrifices and faced brutal atrocities. As many as eight youth have been martyred by the troops in the area,” Geelani said.

The APHC Chairman Syed Ali Shah Geelani had said that India could not deter Kashmiris unflinching resolve to get freedom from its occupation through use of brute force. He reiterated that the ongoing QKM would continue till the people of Kashmir achieved their inalienable right of Self-Determination.

APHC had also appealed the people to make the protest programmes announced in connection with the ongoing QKM a success. APHC in a meeting held in Srinagar, with its General Secretary, Nisar Hussain Rather in chair, strongly condemned the occupation authorities for suppressing the Campaign through use of brute force.

The participants of the meeting also denounced the continued house arrest of Syed Ali Shah Geelani and re-arrest of Muhammad Rafique Ganai, the General Secretary of Jammu and Kashmir Peoples Freedom League. They said that Kashmiris were left with no option but to protest against the brutalities of Indian army.

Meanwhile, the APHC spokesman in a statement in Srinagar expressed serious concern over the deteriorating health of illegally detained Hurriyat leader, Muhammad Ashraf Sehrai in jail. He said that Sehrai had been suffering from different diseases but no medical facility was being provided to him. He demanded his immediate release along with all other illegally detained Hurriyat leaders and activists.

On the other hand, the Jammu and Kashmir People Freedom League has flayed the arrests and harassment of innocent people in Bandipora, Islamabad and Pulwama by the personnel of Indian police. The party spokesman in a statement issued in Srinagar said that the arrest of an eighty years old person in Bandipora was an eye-opener for the puppet administration.

The authorities re-imposed curfew and other restrictions in several parts of the Kashmir Valley to prevent people from holding anti-India demonstrations, today. Curfew had been imposed in Safakadal, Mehraj Gunj, Rajouri Kadal, Khanyar, Nowhatta and Rainawari localities of Srinagar besides in Bandipora, Kupwara, Trehgam and Kralpora areas of OSJK.

The authorities had placed the All Parties Hurriyat Conference Chairman, Syed Ali Shah Geelani and Mirwaiz Umar Farooq under house arrest to prevent them to address pubic gatherings. Mirwaiz Umar Farooq was scheduled to launch signature campaign at Jamia Masjid in Srinagar after Juma prayers, seeking US President, Barack Obama’s intervention on Kashmir.

The Jammu and Kashmir Muslim Khawateen Markaz has denounced the shifting of APHC leader and the party Chairperson, Yasmeen Raja, to Central Jail Srinagar under the draconian Indian laws.

The Vice Chairperson of Muslim Khawateen Markaz, Ayesha Shah, addressing an emergency party meeting in Srinagar, said that the occupation authorities had illegally detained the APHC leader for participating in protest demonstrations against the violations of gross human rights by Indian troops.

She said that Indian police unlawfully arrested Yasmeen Raja from her residence at New Colony in Tull Baghbanpura on October 26 and lodged her at Women’s Police Station Srinagar. “The police kept her there under illegal detention for two days. Later, they shifted her to the Central Jail under the black law,” she added.

Terming the detention of Yasmeen Raja as political vendetta by the puppet authorities, she said that the occupation forces through use of brute force could not deter Kashmiris’ resolve to get freedom from Indian oppression.

interesting, considering the fact that there are many indians in Malaysia, i wouldve thought they'd have a lobby of some sorts there; though most of the indians there are just labourers and such

nice to see the mobilization of efforts to highlight the Kashmiri cause in Malaysia. Thank you for sharing
 
Kashmir Black Day​
ALL over Pakistan as well as in AJK and Occupied Kashmir, a Black Day was observed to condemn the brazen occupation of Kashmir by India on 27 October 1947. It was a reminder for the world that the Kashmir conflict still remains unresolved despite UNSC resolutions and the Kashmiris’ continuous struggle for their right to self-determination. Through decades of Indian repression, generation after generation of Kashmiris’ have rejected Indian occupation of their State as well as its illegal efforts to swallow Jammu and Kashmir into the Indian Union.

Once again during the Black Day protests the Indian troops showed their ruthless aggression against the unarmed Kashmiri protestors as they fired at a rally. But it is not simply naked aggression that the Indians are using against the Kashmiris. The leadership of the Kashmiris is constantly targeted both physically and psychologically but their resolve has not been broken.

Unfortunately, one cannot say the same about the Pakistani state and its successive governments. There has been a growing lack of clarity on what exactly is Pakistan’s Kashmir policy. Yet for Pakistan Kashmir is not simply an emotive issue but a strategic issue that has its roots in the principle of self-determination for the Kashmiris, but also rests on the fact that Kashmir is the lifeline for Pakistan – it is the place from where the river waters of Pakistan flow and without resolution of the Kashmir dispute, the water issue with India cannot be satisfactorily resolved as India will continue to hold Pakistan to ransom on this count as long as it is able to sustain its occupation of Kashmir.

However, there is a growing realisation in India that the present status quo in Kashmir is untenable which is why New Delhi has appointed a three-member team of interlocutors to deal with the Kashmiris and search for a solution. The problem is that the mandate circumscribes the solution as being one within the Indian Union – which is a non-starter to begin with. Even though the leader of the mediating team, Padgaonkar, has stated clearly that Pakistan and AJK have to be included in any dialogue towards a solution but unless India accepts the reality of the need for a plebiscite according to UNSC resolutions, there can be no resolution of the Kashmir issue. And, unless Kashmir is resolved, there can be no meaningful peace and stability in the region. Nor can there be normalisation of relations between Pakistan and India because time and again it has been shown that Kashmir defines the parameters of the Pakistan-India relationship.

It is time for Pakistan to be more assertive in its support of the Kashmiri struggle which has gained a new momentum with the latest youth intifada. For over sixty years the Kashmiris have sacrificed their families, their future and their lives for their right to self determination. They will not give up now.
