Srinagar, August 10, 2020 (PPI-OT): In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Islamic Political Party Chairman, Muhammad Yousuf Naqash has said that all India’s illegal actions like abrogation of Article 370, issuance of domicile certificates to outsiders and choking space for political activities are aimed at changing the demographic status of the territory.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Muhammad Yousuf Naqash addressing a party meeting of executive body in Srinagar, today, expressed grave concern over the prevailing political uncertainty in Jammu and Kashmir, deteriorating condition of the Kashmiri prisoners in jails and denial of political space. Even the local media, he said, is threatened, intimidated and punished over reporting facts on the very worst political, social, economic, religious and human rights situation in the occupied territory.
Besides other issues, Mohammad Yousuf Naqash Naqash said there is complete lull and it looks as if the territory has been declared no man’s area after abrogation of article 370, last year. He said that New Delhi through its dictatorial and oppressive steps has completely invalidated the false claim of India on Kashmir and all other bilateral agreements thus prompting United Nations Security Council to initiate three close door meetings on Kashmir.
Mohammad Yousuf Naqash termed Kashmir issue a globally accepted dispute where in the people’s inalienable right to self-determination is not only acknowledged but confirmed by more than a dozen resolutions, but persistent denial of our basic rights by India through its forces has turned this beautiful piece of land in a battle field where everyday killings, crackdowns, arrests, nocturnal raids and bulldozing residences has become a routine. Naqash passionately appealed to the civil society, media fraternity and columnists to highlight the gross violations against the people of Kashmir.
