SRINAGAR (Indian Occupied Kashmir): In Indian Occupied Kashmir (IOK), the resistance leaders on Tuesday expressed their resolve to fight tooth and nail all attempts aimed at creating discord and rift among different sects and communities in IOK saying that IOK people have been living with religious brotherhood and harmony for ages; Kashmir Media Service (KMS) reported.
This was said in a statement issued by the joint resistance leadership comprising Syed Ali Gilani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Muhammad Yasin Malik after a joint protest programme in Srinagar.
Leaders and workers from various resistance organisations jointly staged the peaceful protest outside the historic Jamia Masjid, Srinagar, against the atrocities of Indian forces, attacks on Muslims in Kathua by Hindu extremist groups and India’s conspiracies to create sectarian discord in the occupied territory.
They said the forces who had been unnerved by the recent peoples’ uprising and united resistance struggle were now trying to arouse communal and sectarian passions to give a bad name to the resistance movement and promised that all the nefarious designs of these elements would be foiled.
Condemning the attacks on Muslims by the communal forces let loose in Kathua, the resistance leaders said these elements were planning another 1947 like Jammu massacre in Kathua but Muslims in Kathua should not feel threatened as entire population of IOK was with them.
They condemned the regime for failing in providing safety and security to the Muslims under attack by communal forces.
Denouncing India and its local collaborators for trying to implement anti-Kashmir policies, the resistance leaders said these policies were aimed to change the Muslim-majority identity of IOK besides affecting the historic and disputed nature and reality of the Kashmir dispute.
They said Kashmir issue is a living reality and that such anti-Kashmir or anti-Muslim policies would not alter its disputed nature.
On the occasion, the resistance leaders paid glowing tributes to the martyrs of IOK’s Awoosa, Pahalgam and offered prayers for the departed.
