The success of election boycott campaign is the success of the whole nation and the credit goes to those people who boycotted and also urge others to so the same,\u201d Shah vowed.<\/p>\n<p>Shah said the government should not forget that the people of Srinagar have been keeping the flag of freedom high since last 66 years. \u201cIn 1988, they proved to be a rock against Indian occupational forces. They are above the fear and greed. It is impossible to lure them to vote for petty interest. They will never compromise with the pious freedom movement,\u201d Shah, who is still under house arrest said.<\/p>\n<p>He also paid tributes to three persons martyred in Shopian and telephonically addressed the people present during the funeral procession of Shaheed Aashiq Ahmad and said the whole nation is indebted to these martyrs who, by sacrificing their precious blood, took Kashmir issue to international level. Lashing out at Indian puppets of valley, Shah said the NC, PDP, Congress are playing the dirty politics in the name of democracy here. \u201cThe arrest of Geelani Sahib, Yasin Malik Sahib, Nayeem Sahib, Mushtaq ul Islam Sahib, Sehrai Sahib and Muhammad Yasin Ataai Sahib is the open proof of the dictatorial approach of these pro-India parties,\u201d Shah said, adding that the reason of putting pro-freedom leaders under<\/p>\n<p>arrest is that they want to befool the common Kashmiri by forcing him to participate in sham elections.<\/p>\n<p>Shah expressed hope that despite the continuous arrest of Hurriyat JK leaders, the anti-election campaign will continue at any cost. Shabir Ahmad Shah also expressed serious concern over the plight of detainees across the various jails of valley and said the hundreds among Freedom Party zonal president, Moulana Abdul Qayoom continue to languish in jails with no crime of theirs. \u201cThe worst part is that the killers of Shaheed Muhammad Maqbool Bhat and Shaheed Muhammad Afzal Guru viz. Farooq Abdullah and Omar Abdullah are not shying away from asking for votes to people just for their petty chair.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shah also condemned the authorities for not allowing a youth Ishfaq Ahmad Baba alias Nana of Hajin, who was seriously injured due to pellet gun and was scheduled to visit Chandigarh for treatment. \u201cThe so-called cheap and tyrannical police, in spite of hospitalizing him put the injured youth behind bars. It is the height of oppression,\u201d Shah added.\u00a0(KNS)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Srinagar:\u00a0Senior leader of Hurriyat Conference Jammu Kashmir (HCJK) Shabir Ahmad Shah while expressing satisfaction over the pro-freedom spirit of the people of Anantnag, Shopian, Pulwama, Kulgam and Tral said all eyes are on the people of Srinagar, Ganderbal and Budgam as to how much loyalty will they show with the blood of martyrs by rejecting [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1824","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-union-territory"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kashmir.watch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1824","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kashmir.watch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kashmir.watch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kashmir.watch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kashmir.watch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1824"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kashmir.watch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1824\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kashmir.watch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1824"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kashmir.watch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1824"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kashmir.watch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1824"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
