Srinagar, May 16, (Scoop News)-The separatist troika comprising of Syed Ali Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Muhammad Yasin Malik called for Lalchowk Chalo on Saturday May 19 against the proposed visit of Indian Prime Minister Narinder Modi.
In an extraordinary meeting the leaders strongly condemned the atrocities committed against people throughout the Kashmir,” the troika said and added that proposed visit of Indian premier is aimed at to hoodwink the opinion of the international community.
Alleging forces for turning whole state into a battle field, the leadership said that innocent people are detained on frivolous charges and are detained in different jails while as youth are being pushed to the wall, adding, such undemocratic and inhuman situation can’t be tolerated for long.
They further alleged that they were being denied the political space and genuine voices strangulated and added that those detained are subjected to torture and inhuman behavior, statement said.
They said that though the state and its abettors in Jammu Kashmir have put almost all the leadership either in jails or under house arrest, but despite these oppressive tactics and use of police and military might, troika will stage a peaceful protest on May 19.
They said that forcing silence of a graveyard by using military might and designating it as peace can only be termed as foolishness and if Indian rulers and their abettors really believe in democracy and freedom of speech, they should stop their oppressive tactics and allow troika to hold this peaceful protest.
The separatist leaders said a fascist government in power, is trying to paint their wrong doings and killings and arranging these patch works and visits of their masters and added it is their ploy to give wrong impression of brutal pacification of Kashmir as peace and return of normalcy.
The leaders said that Lal Chowk Chalo has been called to demonstrate before the whole world what people of Kashmir stand for. “If Indian rulers assume that oppression unleashed by their army and forces has crushed resistance in Kashmir, then they should find some courage to lift ban on political activities of the resistance camp and allow such programs,” they said in a statement.
“India and its stooges only know to suppress people’s voices under the pretext of so-called democracy and normalcy which is highly condemnable,” it added.
Lalchowk Chalo will highlight the alleged miseries and hardships faced by the people of Kashmir at the hands of oppressive forces, it will also highlight the reign of terror unleashed by Indian occupational forces and it will also be a show of solidarity with the people of south Kashmir where Indian army, forces and police have let loose an ugly phase of horror.
The leadership decided to form a six member committee so that a mechanism for public participation in getting ideas and inputs and in decision making and implementation will be created, the statement said.
All segments of public including writers’ intellectuals, traders, chambers of commerce, transporters teachers lawyers, doctors’ students activists will be made a part of the broad based mechanism. The leadership will put forth its views and ideas that have been deliberated upon and during discussions with them will take their inputs.
A consensus on the course and implementation will be jointly taken and the public informed. The public has to prepare itself to follow the programs in letter and spirit. The situation is grave, the road is long and tough .But our courage and determination unwavering.
Meanwhile, paying rich tributes to Mirwaiz Mohammad Farooq, Abdul Gani Lone and others, the separatist leaders decided to call peaceful public gathering at martyrs graveyard Eidgah Srinagar on May 21 to commemorate the martyrdom anniversaries of Mirwaiz Mohammad Farooq, Abdul Gani Lone, martyrs of Hawal and all the martyrs of movement.
The statement said that the people of Kashmir have offered huge and continue to offer great sacrifices of their life limb and property for the rightful cause of freedom and on May 21 people will reiterate their pledge with ongoing freedom movement. A complete strike will be observed on this day.
