Election opens doors of prisons for Kashmiris: Geelani
Srinagar: Chairman Hurriyat Conference (G), Syed Ali Geelani Monday expressed concerns over the continued crackdown on pro-freedom leaders, their relatives, activists and youth.
“The rhetoric of India being world’s largest democracy is mere hoax and deceit as its highhandedness and brutality, aggressive military and coercive measures have tarnished every fabric of democratic norm, if any, in the state of Jammu and Kashmir,” Geelani said as per a statement issued here.
Condemning shifting of Ameer Jamaat-e-Islami Dr. Hamid Fayaz to Kathua and crackdown on Jamaat-e-Islami, JKLF and other pro-freedom leaders and activists, Geelani said that every political event in India brings a bag of worries and miseries for the helpless inmates of Jammu and Kashmir.
“As now the election activities are on peak in whole of India, in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, it opens the doors of prisons, interrogation centers and police stations,” Geelani.
He said that to make this ‘militarized election’ a success, every sane voice for basic and fundamental rights is strangulated through the barrel of gun and by the blunt sword of investigative institutions.
Geelani added that “suppressing genuine aspiration of people through un-paralleled force and might has always catastrophic ramifications and non resolution of this nuclear flash point has proved it many times.”
“Nobody on earth has ever succeeded in curbing the freedom sentiment and India stands as an example itself. So early it accomplishes the reality, better it will be for the world in general and sub-continent in particular,” he added.
