Srinagar: The Awami Action Committee (AAC) Wednesday announced Hafta-e-Shahadat (martyr’s week) programmes commencing from May 18.
Paying tributes to late Mirwaiz Moulvi Muhammad Farooq and the martyr’s of Hawal massacre of May 21, 1990, the AAC, in a statement, pledged to carry forward “the mission of martyrs”.
The AAC said the martyr’s week will commence on May 18 with the recitation of holy Quran at all the district and Tehsil headquarters of AAC across Kashmir from 11 am onwards amid special prayers for the late Mirwaiz and “and all martyrs of Kashmir”.
The Anjuman-e-Auqaf Jamia Masjid , it said, will organize a Husn-e-Qirat completion at the historic Jamia Masjid.
On May 19 (Sunday), a seminar will be organised by APHC at its headquarters at Rajbagh where in all the Hurriyat leaders will speak and pay tributes to late Mirwaiz and other martyrs.
The AAC said that on May 20 (Monday), the Anjuman-e-Nusratul Islam will organize a seminar at the auditorium of Islamia Higher Secondary School Rajouri Kadal under the title—‘Amal Say Zindagi Banti hai Janat Bhi, Jahanam Bhi’.
On the occasion, a special issue of ‘Shaheed-e-Milat 2019’ will also be released. On the same day, AAC will also hold a worker’s rally at Rajouri Kadal in memory of martyrs.
The committee gave a call for a complete shutdown across Kashmir on May 21 in memory of “all the martyrs of Kashmir struggle”.
After the Zuhr prayers, a congregational Fateh Khawani will be held at martyr’s graveyard Eidgah where Hurriyat leaders will address the people and “take a pledge to carry on the peaceful struggle for the right of self-determination”, added the AAC statement.
The AAC said that “for the first time since past 28 years, the state administration has denied the permission to doctors for taking part in the free medical camp and blood donation camp that used to be set up outside Jamia Masjid”.
An AAC spokesman said that hundreds of people would get benefited by the free medical camp where patients were also distributed free medicine.
“But ironically the state administration without giving any reason, has denied permission to the State Health Department from attending the camp, which is very unfortunate”.
