Chairman of APHC Mirwaiz Umar Farooq addressing a gathering-Scoop News
Srinagar, October 11(Scoop News)- Reiterating that Kashmir is directly affected by the escalation of tension along the LOC, Chairman of All Party Hurriyat Conference Mirwaiz Umar Farooq on Friday said that solution of Kashmir issue through dialogue between all the stake holders to the dispute has become inevitable.
Addressing a huge gathering at the shrine of Sheikh-ul-Alam also known as “Nund Resh” near Charar-e-Sharief,40 kilometers southwest of Sriagar, the summer capital,Kashmir’s chief preist said that tension on LOC apart from affecting Kashmiris, also had negative fallout on the relations between India and Pakistan.
Umar said the elections in the world have been the vehicles of change, but in Kashmir they have been used to subvert the truth and impose stooges of the choice on the people.
He said the APHC has repeatedly put forth the truth behind these elections before the world and now the revelations by the former Chief of Army Staff General V. K. Singh has substantiated Hurriyat’s true speak. He said former General has unmasked the name sake democratic process as he has aptly pointed out how the loyalty of so called main stream politicians was bought against monetary considerations from time to time.
Mirwaiz said in reality, these parties are representing Indian vested interest in Kashmir.
Expressing concern over this phenomenon, he said that these parties and Governments framed by them were involved in bloodshed of Kashmiris and providing protection to Indian troops involved in ghastly abuse of human rights violations in Kashmir.
Hurriyat chairman made it once again clear that it is the imperative wish of the people of Kashmir that Kashmir dispute be solved through a meaningful and result oriented dialogue. He said in case India and Pakistan seriously pursue the talks to address Kashmir issue then APHC would extend its full support to the process.
APHC Chairman said that aspirations of people can’t be suppressed on gunpoint
or through military might. He said that Afghanistan and Palestine are the prime examples in this regard where the stakeholders have finally taken course to talks to solve
these issues.
Mirwaiz said that Kashmiri voice can’t be choked and strangulated through terror and
suppression. He said the international community is aware of the fact that Worlds third largest Army despite unleashing interminable oppression from decades on has been unable to defeat the Kashmiri aspirations of our people. He said Kashmiris were not against any nation or religion, but they are demanding their rights and fulfilment of the pledges made to them.
APHC Chairman asked India to shed its obduracy and start the process of demilitarization from Kashmir as a goodwill step. He said the this would help in
creating a conducive atmosphere for a purposeful dialogue for a peaceful resolution of Kashmir issues.
Shedding light on his Islamic teaching and social reforms, APHC Chairman paid glowing tributes to the greatest and highly respected Kashmiri sufi saint,Nund Resh.
