Asks people to boycott the forthcoming polls
Srinagar: High Court Bar Association
while extending its support to the call given by Huriyat Conference led by
Mirwaiz Umar Farooq for April 12 against the grant of extension in
lease of Tosmaidan land , stated that it impresses upon the international
community to put pressure on GOI by asking it to respect the commitments made
by it to the people of Kashmir both inside and outside its Parliament and at
the International fora .
“Instead of allowing its forces to occupy more and more
land in the state forcibly or otherwise for strengthening their illegal
occupation, India must take immediate and concrete steps with regard to the
implementation of U.N. Resolutions on Kashmir,” read the statement issued to
KNS.
The Bar Association stated that there will be no
peace in the Sub-Continent unless Kashmir ‘dispute’ is resolved in accordance
with the wishes and aspirations of the people of Kashmir and a chance is
provided to them to decide about their future.
“The Bar Association also wants to remind the people that
holding of elections in the State in presence of more than a million armed
forces is violative of U.N. Resolutions of 1951 and 1957 and as it is in no way
a substitute for the right of self-determination, but as it is being projected
otherwise before the International Community, therefore, they should boycott
both Parliamentary and Assembly Elections being held in the State under Indian
patronage.” (KNS)
