Geelani chairs ‘Shoora’ meeting
Srinagar: Hurriyat Conference (G) held a day long Majlis Shoora (Executive Council) meeting at Hyderpora Srinagar chaired by its chairman Syed Ali Geelani. The meeting deliberated in detail, the current political situation pertaining to the movement for right to self-determination.
In his presidential address, Syed Ali Geelani termed Kashmir dispute as an “unfinished business of the partition of India in 1947”.
“None of the basic three parties to this dispute India, Pakistan and the people of Kashmir are in a position to avoid any untoward consequences of this visible danger in South Asia,” he warned.
Geelani called the India’s approach as an “ostrich gesture to hoodwink its position from the hard ground reality in Kashmir”.
Urging the pro-freedom people of the state to remain “vigilant, steadfast and well disciplined to take the sacred mission of their resistance movement to its logical conclusion irrespective of use of military might by India to suppress the freedom sentiments of the people of Kashmir”, Hurriyat (G) chairman expressed his hope that the “freedom loving people of Kashmir shall never succumb or surrender to the military might and pressure.”
“Our movement is a legitimate demand recognized by the United Nations and endorsed by the overwhelming majority of the people of Kashmir since October 1997,” he said.
He urged the youth to follow the teachings of Islam in letter and spirit.
“Authorities are still hell bent to suppress the freedom sentiments of the people of Kashmir by engaging its military power so it has become highly imperative for the international community to prevail upon them for an early resolution of Kashmir dispute and fulfill its pledges and commitments as recorded before the United Nations, he added.
Hurriyat Conference (G) Chairman demanded a high probe by the United Nations Human Rights Council, Amnesty International, Asia Watch and International Red Cross Committee and set a war crime tribunal to investigate the alleged against the subjugated people of Kashmir”.
The meeting urged UN to help resolve the Kashmir dispute keeping in view the aspirations of the people of Kashmir.
