Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir has been set on fire since August, 2019 by Narendra Modi-led Hindutva government with nobody to douse the flames and end injustices in the territory.
According to Kashmir Media Service, this was said in a statement by the Srinagar-based Institute and Documentation Centre (IDC) Chairman Prof Farhan Ali while giving his opinion about the deteriorating situation in IIOJK.
He said that after 5th August 2019, with the unceremonial, unconstitutional and undemocratic abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A by the Hindutva BJP govt led by Narendra Modi, Kashmir has been set on fire with nobody to douse the flames. He said that the political, constitutional and geographic status of IIOJK was not only disturbed but eclipsed against the wishes of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. This is never acceptable to the Kashmiris though silence of graveyard has been created in IIOJK, he said.
He said that constant cordon and search operations, house raids and crackdowns since 5th August 2019 should never be construed as an acquiescence as the state repression has increased multifold with unexplainable magnitude and gravity.
He said thousands of Kashmiris including Hurriyet leaders, youth, journalists, HR and other activists, including Massrat Alam Butt, Muhammad Yasin Malik, Shabbir Ahmed Shah, Aasiya Andrabi, Naheeda Nasreen, Fehmeeda Sufi, Nayeem Ahmad Khan, Ayaz Akbar, Pir Saifullah, Merajuddin Kalwal, Shahid-ul-Islam, Farooq Ahmed Dar, Syed Shahid Yousuf Shah, Syed Shakeel Yousuf Shah, Bilal Siddiqi, Molvi Bashir Irfani, Mushtaq-ul-Islam, Ameer Hamza, DrHameed Fayaz, Abdul Ahmad Parra, Noor Muhammad Fayaz,—KMS
