Calls for protest post Friday prayers against ban on Jamaat

Srinagar: Joint Resistance Leadership (JRL) Wednesday called for a protest post Friday prayers against banning of Jamaat, arrest of its cadres, attempt at diluting hereditary state subject laws and raids on leadership.
JRL comprising Syed Ali Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Muhammad Yasin Malik in a joint statement issued here said, “Ban on Jamaat-e-Islami, arrest of hundreds of its leaders and cadres, the assault on the State’s hereditary state subject law fresh spree of raids by NIA and ED are all authoritarian decisions aimed at weakening the people’s movement and to intimidate leadership and people of Kashmir into submission to give up striving for the resolution of the Kashmir dispute.”
The trio said people and leadership are engaged in a political and human struggle for Kashmir resolution as per the internationally accepted and democratic principle of self determination.
“Authoritarianism is no solution to issues and will not yield the results that GOI wants as has been proved in the last three decades. Talks and dialogue is the most peaceful and democratic manner to address issues and bring peace in the subcontinent,” he said.
They urged Imams and Khateebs to highlight the issue on coming Friday and asked people to peacefully protest against these ‘arbitrary and authoritarian’ moves which include banning and arrest of Jamaat cadres, attempt at diluting hereditary state subject laws and raids on leadership.
