He said that so-called rulers are actually annoyed with our Chrar-e-Shareef visit and this arrest is actually like taking revenge from us.

He said that so-called rulers and their forces are actually promoting violence as they have imposed a blanket ban on every peaceful political and religious activity in Kashmir.

Chrar-e-Shareef rally was actually one of the best examples of peaceful attitude of the resistance camp as a huge public program was conducted in an exemplary peaceful manner but this peaceful attitude does not suit so-called rulers and occupational authorities as they want to keep resistance leadership away from people by using violent methods of military and police, added Yasin Malik.

Malik said that by these harsh methods, so-called rulers want to break our will and resolve but the military might and use of brute force has and can never break our will.
