Budgam, July 12 : Paying rich tributes to three militants killed in Redbugh area of Central Kashmir’s Budgam district, senior separatist leader and President Anjuman Shari Shian, Aga Syed Hasan Almosvi Alsafvi Wednesday expressed anguish over the repeated killings of Kashmiri youth in the name of what he termed ‘so-called encounters.’
Aga Syed Hasan told KP that innocent youth of Kashmir Valley are being killed on daily basis whose only fault is that they seek resolution of Kashmir issue. “How long India is going to kill these innocent youth of Kashmir and how long it will put Kashmir on back burner,” he said.
“Youth in Kashmir will not be forced to pick up guns if India sincerely resolves Kashmir issue. India is pushing people of Kashmir to wall. First their brutalities force youth to take to arms and then they are being killed in the encounters. How long we are going to witness the unjust and brutal approach of India. We have to find ways and means to stop these killings in the name of encounters,” Aga Hasan said.
He paid rich tributes to the martyrs of July 13, 1931, urging the people to observeJuly 13, as day of reaffirmation of oath to take their mission to its logical end.
“This day has the significance of marking the beginning of the ongoing freedom struggle. On this day the Kashmiris for the first time raised their voice against the atrocities perpetrated by the Dogra rulers on them and 22 persons offered supreme sacrifices of their life. The ongoing freedom movement is the continuous process of that struggle,” he said.
Aga Hasan said that the best way to pay tributes to the July 31, martyrs is that we should take their cherished mission to its logical end.” He emphasized the need for unity among pro-freedom parties to make India shun its obduracy.
