Srinagar, Jan 26 (KNS): Chairman Hurriyat (G), Syed Ali Geelani, Thursday said India has no moral right to celebrate its republican day as they are ‘squashed the basic rights of people since last 70 years’.
In a statement issued to KNS, Geelani thanked the people of state for ‘observing shutdown’ on 26th January.
Geelani said that it proved beyond any doubt that people in state have “nothing to do & are not interested with this and they are all out against this forced occupation”.
Referring to Governor’s address, Pro-freedom leader said that it depicts their age-old ‘obstinate and egoistic’ attitude and better for them is to understand the message carried and conveyed by people’s uprising in year 2016.
It is futile to cover facts, Geelani said and declaring last year uprising as referendum by people.
Geelani said that there is no reason to turn blind eye to this fact. Ridiculing the ruler’s approach, Geelani said that instead of taking note of the aspirations of people, they resorted to ‘brute force’ and with its military might are desperate to silence the genuine voices.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp ChannelIt is never possible while criticising the egoistic approach of Indian politicians, said Geelani.
Commenting over Governor’s address, Geelani said that we resent and express our feelings through peaceful means and we are not craving for shutdown calls or protesting on streets. It is natural discourse and we will continue our fight and show our resentment till the last solider leaves our State.
Pro-freedom Leader said that Governor’s address was “nothing but jugglery of words. It is their routine exercise, yet carry’s nothing except arrogance”. Geelani while referring to India’s inflexible stance said that natural law exists there and it is expected that the harsh approach of India will lead it to astray. (KNS)
