Srinagar, December 14, 2018 (PPI-OT): In occupied Kashmir, the Chairman of All Parties Hurriyat Conference, Syed Ali Gilani, has deplored that India is using every brutal tactic to suppress the Kashmiris’ just struggle for securing their inalienable right to self-determination.
Syed Ali Gilani in a statement issued in Srinagar said, New Delhi is suffering from arrogance of power and has tried its best to muzzle the voice of Kashmiri people but has utterly failed in its nefarious designs. He said that the brutalities of trigger-happy Indian troops had converted the paradise on the earth into a hell, suffocating every living creature in this piece of land.
The Hurriyat forum led by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq in a statement in Srinagar expressed serious concern over the miserable plight of the illegally detained Hurriyat leaders and activists.
