Srinagar: Hurriyat Conference Jammu Kashmir
(HCJK) leader Shabir Ahmad Shah was today put under house arrest by a large
contingent of police force and was not allowed to visit Pulwama. As per
program, he was scheduled to address people in various areas of Pulwama with
regards to election boycott.
According to a statement issued to KNS, however, Muslim
League chairman, Mushtaq ul Islam, JKLF (R) chairman Farooq Ahmad Dar, Muslim
Conference chairman Shabir Ahmad Dar, Islamic Political Party chairman Muhammad
Yusuf Naqash and dozens of activists including Ghulam Muhammad Maqdam, Abdul
Rashid Bhat, Wajhat Qureshi, Bilal Ahmad Shah, Fayaz Ahmad Kaloo, Aijaz Ahmad
Mir and Haroon, succeeded in reaching Pulwama where they addressed people and
appealed people to stay away from so-called democratic elections.
The leaders while addressing people said the elections
are only to consolidate the forcible occupation of Indian rule and to mislead
the world community. “Here people are never consulted but the administration
thrusts their own views upon them. They are carrying out undemocratic
activities in the name of democracy,” they said.
They said Hurriyat Conference is a political platform
which propagates its stand among people in a peaceful manner but as routine,
the administration creates hurdles in our path and prevents us from reaching
out to the people. “India should realize that it is Kashmiri people who are
running the freedom movement. They can’t separate masses from their leaders.
Our slogan will reap fruit by the people’s election boycott.”
Hurriyat Conference JK leader Shabir Ahmad Shah while
paying tributes to the martyrs of Chowkibal said such encounters and situations
rise only because India always kept the Kashmir issue lingering and never
wished to resolve it.
Meanwhile, Hurriyat spokesperson while condemning the
house arrest of Shabir Ahmad Shah said it is ironic that so-called democratic
rulers are beating the drums of democracy but are restricting the every
movement of its opponents.
As per last reports, the Hurriyat leaders and activists
were arrested on their way back from Pulwama which include Mushtaq ul Islam,
Farooq Ahmad Dar, Shabir Ahmad Dar, Muhammad Yusuf Naqash, Aijaz Ahmad Mir,
Nayeem Ahmad Dar, Muhammad Saju Wani, Javed Ahmad Mir and Rouf Ahmad.
