Democracy means accepting the freedom of expression and
choice of people and providing them a chance to determine their future. Yasin Malik while addressing
people at Khrew Pulwama
Khrew: Democracy means accepting the freedom of
expression and choice of people and providing them a chance to determine their
future .it does not mean suppressing their democratic right. Indian and its
puppets in Kashmir have always used elections to suppress our right to freedom
and oppressing the common masses .therefore every honorable Kashmiris
will keep away from these voting’s and elections. This was stated by the
chairman JKLF Mohammad Yasin Malik while speaking in a public program held at Khrew
Pulwama today. Prior to this Jalsa ,Yasin sahib and other JKLF leaders
reached Zewan where pamphlets and other written metarial was distributed,
at Woyen the rally again met the people and upraised them from the ill
consequences of the elections. At Khonmoh the leaders offered Nimaz I Zuhr
there. After prayers people of Khomoh especially youth on learning about their
presence came out in large numbers from their houses to welcome Yasin sahib. A
Dignified procession led by Yasin sahib started from Khonmnoh and marched
towards Khrew. Participants of the procession were chanting slogans in favor of
Azadi, martyrs, leaders and resistance. They were also chanting slogans against
oppression, arrests, and elections. On reaching the central Chowk Kherw this
procession took the shape of Jalsa which was addressed by Yasin sahib and other
leaders. While addressing the people, Yasin sahib congratulated them for their
love and enthusiasm for the freedom movement and said that this tiny nation of
ours has sacrificed a lot for the freedom and it is our collective
responsibility to safeguard these sacrifices. He said that people have more
sacrifices than the leaders here and it is the people who have to keep vigil
and remain steadfast in this struggle. While referring to the concept of
democracy .Yasin Malik said that democracy means accepting and respecting
people’s choice, verdicts and freedom of expression. Giving people the right to
choose their own future is the highest standard of democracy. He said that many
nations in near past gained their freedom under this principle .Crimea is the
latest nation that was given this choice and this list includes south Sudan
east Timor and many more. According to this very principle Scotland, Quebec,
New Caledonia, Catalonia etc are also exercising their democratic right in near
future and will be given a choice to vote for their future. But India which
claims to be the world’s biggest democracy, instead of fulfilling its pledges
to Kashmiris, has and is subjecting the people of Jammu Kashmir to worst kind
of oppression for demanding this democratic right. The irony is that India is
using “democracy and democratic institutions” to crush, defame and distort the
freedom movement of Kashmiris. Therefore keeping these facts in sight people of
Jammu Kashmir have no choice but to refrain from participating in these so
called democratic elections. Yasin Malik while stating in detail the
history of elections held in Jammu Kashmir from 1947, said that although these
elections are fought in the name of electricity, water, employment, progress,
good governance and for running other day to day affairs but the fact of the
matter is that India and its Kashmiri puppets always use this to defame our
freedom struggle. These people project this vote as being casted in favor of
India and try to malign our movement and prolong our slavery .he said that
India has always tried to use these false elections to cement its illegal
occupation on Jammu Kashmir. He said that Indian army and forces kill
people in cold blood and when they are questioned by the world India replies to
them that Kashmiris have their own elected government and that India has
nothing to do with these killings? Yasin Malik said that all those who
participate in these election be it National conference, PDP, congress, BJP,
DNP, AIP, PDF, CPIM, CPI, INDEPENDENT and those who are asking for votes in the
name of change, are only serving India and its interests in Kashmir. Yasin
Malik said that Kashmiris want to ask those who are asking for votes in the
name of change that how and when can they bring about the change when Indian
occupation is on Jammu Kashmir is only based on the institutionalized
corruption, oppression and tyranny. Yasin sahib stressed upon the people to
remain steadfast and vigilant to safeguard the sacrifices rendered. He said
that our enemies are trying to divide us in the name of cast, creed, religion,
region, language and are asking us to vote for so called prosperity and
progress but we all know that they are deceiving us and we all will have to
safeguard ourselves from their ill designs. Yasin Malik said that nations that
are gaining their freedom may have less sacrifices than us but we should know
that they always kept seriousness and instead of their personal gains gave priority
to their national cause. He said that as a living nation that has sacrificed a
lot for the freedom, we will also have to show magnanimity, wisdom, courage,
steadfastness and seriousness and safeguard our national interest by boycotting
the Indian elections. He hoped that the Self respecting, wise and courageous
people of Kashmir will surely show their zeal for freedom and keep away from
these Indian elections.
