While paying rich tributes to Aman Ullah Khan, speakers said that he was a noble son of this soil who from his youth till the time of his death remained steadfast and despite various hardships never budged or compromised on his principles.

“Aman Ullah Khan was an ideologue, a great orator, prolific writer, a high class intellectual, a great patriot, a teacher, a political thinker and above all a humble Muslim who wrote hundreds of books, thousands of pamphlets, papers, columns and used his every ability for upholding the cause and interests of Kashmiris,” asserted speakers.

While speaking on the occasion, JKLF chairman, Muhammad Yasin Malik said that Aman was not only a great leader who led the nation on political front but an Intelligent and dynamic diplomat who championed the cause of Kashmir on international front too.

“He was truly a pioneer, a herald of free Jammu Kashmir, a bright example of consistent struggle, a prolific politician and an intellectual of great repute, a diplomat and a leader whose struggle and sacrifices will always be remembered,” added Malik.

He said that life and struggle of Aman is a testimony of his resilience and today when the struggle for freedom has entered into a new phase, we need to look and take note of his life and struggle.

While referring to recent events in Kashmir, JKLF chief said that today “we are being threatened, intimidated and harassed and told that Kashmiri resistance will be dealt with iron hands. On the other hand we are being tempted in the name of Vajpayee doctrine and dialogue.”

“I want to clear here that dialogue with fascism is of no use and not possible and increase in oppression, suppression and tyranny will never succeed in breaking the will of Kashmiris,” Malik added.

He said that Kashmir is a dispute which needs a resolution and unless and until all three parties of this dispute including Kashmir, Pakistan and India sit down together on the same table without any precondition, dialogue is not possible and can never deliver.

On formation of Jan Sena to fight against Kashmiris, JKLF chairman according to the statement said, “Lakhs of Indian army, paramilitary and police forces tried all their oppression and tyranny to curb Kashmiris but have failed and now some joker Sena is being sponsored by fascist rulers to fight against Kashmiris which is ludicrous and comical.”

Malik said that Indian rulers and their partners in Kashmir should know that Kashmiri people’s struggle for freedom will continue till the achievement of the desired goal and no ‘oppression, tyranny or suppression’ can succeed in breaking the will of Kashmiris.
