Geelani pays tributes militants killed in Tral

SRINAGAR, OCT 31 (PTK): Paying rich tributes to the youth martyred in Tral Pulwama, All Parties Hurriyat Conference chairman, Syed Ali Geelani said that blood-bath, death and destruction all around the valley is only because of Indian rulers, who very cunningly are still in denial mode.

Strongly condemning the use of military power against the civilian people by the Indian occupation forces in Zaloora, Hurriyat Chairman said that on the pretext of search and cordon operations common people are deliberately targeted and victimized by the men in uniform. In this grim situation the life of common people has became miserable and vulnerable at the hands of occupational forces.

Terming the repressive measures of vandalizing the property of the common people and intimidating them on the basis of revulsion and detestation as highly cowardice and deplorable, the Hurriyat leader affirmed that none of the International laws pertaining to war does permit any such military action against unarmed civilians.

Pro-freedom leader said that situation in the valley is worsening with each passing day and that Indian authorities rely on their military might to suppress people’s aspirations and muzzle voices. Justifying the resentment from youth, Geelani said that our youth are resisting, to put an end to slavery and this barbarity.

Unending curbs on political activities and continuous detention of resistance leadership has added to the already existing political uncertainty in state and as such our youth are quite disheartened with prevailing situation as peaceful activities are denied, asserted Geelani,

Geelani while referring to awful situation in detention centers and police lockups, said that people particularly youth are subjected to third degree torture by police authorities.

Condemning Delhi for their unrealistic approach, Geelani said that continuous bloodshed in state and death of our youngsters extreme painful. We need peace said Geelani, however it is Delhi that is denying our right and creating hurdles. Denouncing Delhi for their obstinate approach, Geelani said, India can play a key role in bringing the peace in sub-continent, however bold measures are needed to resolve this pending issue. (PTK)
