In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Hurriyat leader, Javaid Ahmad Mir, has said that Kashmir dispute is one of the oldest issues in the United Nations and it is the responsibility of the world body to settle it according to its relevant reso-lutions.
Javaid Ahmad Mir talking to media men in Sri-nagar demanded release of all illegally Kashmiri Hurriyat leaders and activists languishing in differ-ent jails of India and the occupied territory.
He also welcomed ceasefire between India and Pakistan on the Line of Control (LoC), adding that the people of Kashmir had always welcomed dia-logue between the two neighbor countries for peace-ful settlement of the long-pending Kashmir dispute.
Javaid Mir appealed to the international com-munity to work for peace, save the future genera-tions and give peace a chance for stability in South Asia.
Earlier, Javaid Ahmad Mir, today, visited the shrine of Hazrat Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jeelani (RA) in Srinagar for Friday prayers but the occupation authorities did not allow him and other Kashmiri devotees to enter the shrine.
On the other hand, the authorities also did not allow Juma congregational prayers in main worship places in the territory including Srinagar’s historic Jamia Masjid and Hazratbal Shrine.—KMS
