Srinagar, December 28, 2018 (PPI-OT): In occupied Kashmir, a delegation of Jammu and Kashmir Muslim Conference (JKMC) led by its Chairman, Shabbir Ahmed Dar, visited the residence of eminent writer, thinker and educationist, late Hamidi Kashmiri and expressed solidarity with the bereaved family over his demise.
Shabbir Ahmed Dar while speaking to the mourners said that late Hamidi Kashmiri was not only a great educationist but also staunch freedom-lover. He said Hamidi Kashmiri as vice-chancellor of Kashmir University, while protesting against Operation Tiger and Sopore massacre of 6th January 1993, observed one-day hunger strike and expressed solidarity with the protesters over the planned genocide of Kashmiris.
Shabbir Dar said his contribution as vice-chancellor to the resistance movement can be written with golden words as it was because of his and other prominent citizens who forced India through its Home Minister to issue a statement and direct that whoever will be arrested his family should be informed within 24 hours.
