Srinagar: Hurriyat Conference (G)
executive body today held an important meeting, which was presided by Hurriyat
Conference General Secretary Haji Ghulam Nabi Sumji.
According to a statement issued to KNS, the meeting was
attended by the heads and representatives of all the constituents of the
amalgam. In the meeting the election drama, latest developments, and future
strategies were thoroughly discussed.
While repeating its stand of election boycott, the
executive council in a press statement said that the promise of Jammu and
Kashmir police chief Ashok Prasad some days back has been proven wrong and
baseless in which he said that with regarding to the upcoming election drama,
no one would be arrested from the pro-freedom camp but to its contrary they
(police) and Army have formally started the series of raids, arrests and
harassment in the southern and northern areas of Kashmir and till now about
dozens of pro-freedom activists have been imprisoned in police stations and
hundreds of residential houses have been raided so far.
Hurriyat (G) activists from Sheeri Baramulla Ghulam
Mohammad Bangi and Basher Ahmad Soliah were arrested by the police when they were
distributing election boycott posters among the people while as the Regular
Army in Narwah Baramulla raided the hose of Abdul Rasheed Rather and harassed
his family members and children and seized the posters from his house.
A team of Special Task Force of police also raided the
house of Tehreek-e-Hurriyat District secretary Baramulla Abdul Subhan Wani to
arrest him but he was not present at his home and in his absence the police
team harassed his family and misbehaved with them.
The Hurriyat said that the same situation has been
created in South Kashmir areas where about 40 houses of Hurriyat activists have
been raided to arrest them. Hurriyat General Secretary in his presidential
address said that the government have practically banned the peaceful election
boycott campaign of pro-freedom people and are not letting them to reach
people.
“This type of policy has proven this election drama as a
military operation and a one sided game which has lost its importance and
credibility.” Sumji expressed his deep concern over the harassment of
pro-freedom people by the Indian Army and said that the Army has been called to
make the election drama a success and they want to terrify and terrorize the
common people like they were doing in the past, so that people will be forced
to vote.
Hurriyat (G) General Secretary said that the
foremost priority of this time of the pro-freedom people is to peacefully run
the election boycott campaign and they should jointly focus on this important
issue. He further said that those people who are raising other issues are
intentionally or unintentionally diverting the main and important issue of this
time and they are also raising the doubts about the election boycott campaign
among the people.
Sumji Said that Hurriyat Conference is not against the
democracy or the democratic process, but in presence of more than 7.5 lakh
foreign forces, the election drama doesn’t hold any importance and credibility
and it becomes a military operation rather than a democratic process in Jammu
and Kashmir.
While terming all the pro-Indian politicians as the low
rung soldiers of New Delhi, the Hurriyat General Secretary said that Umar
Abdullah, Mufti Mohammad Sayeed and Saif-ud-Din Soz are the big sinners of the
nation and they all are equally enemies of Kashmiris. They only want power and
chair and for this they can mortgage everything with the New Delhi, so how can
anybody expect anything good from them.(KNS)
