SrinagarPaying tributes to the slain youth in Shopian gunfight, Hurriyat (G) chairman, Syed Ali Geelani said that due to disputed status and conflicting nature of Kashmir issue, our fourth generation is pushed to wall and forced to face extreme situations.
Referring to State, Geelani in a statement said that it is the worlds highly militarised zone, and added that our youth are not safe and young generations while sensing humiliating and barbaric approach towards the women folk, are forced to take extreme steps.
Commenting over the appalling situations, Geelani said that authorities in New Delhi should understand and differentiate between right to self-determination movement and terrorism.
Geelani said that the issue is recognised and accepted by international community and there is no doubt that the movement we pursue is indigenous and local in nature.
Bullying and military might cant supress our sentiments or break our resolve, said Geelani and urged international community to focus on this issue and take steps for its amicable and lasting resolution.
Peace and tranquillity in sub-continent will remain a distant dream, said Geelani and added that unless the issue is resolved as per aspiration of people of state, uncertainty will haunt the whole sub-continent.
Geelani expressed his deep concern over the unending incidents of braid chopping, saying that informations received, suggest that these shameful activities are being carried with active support of forces and its agencies.
Geelani said that people and particularly women folk are showing their resentment over these devilish incidents, however local police instead of nabbing the culprits, are using the extreme force against peaceful protestors.
