Srinagar, February 21: (KNS) The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference General Secretary Ali Muhammad Sagar on Sunday visited the residence of slain policeman Suhail Ahmed at Logripura in Ashmuqam, Pahalgam to express unison with the bereaved family in their hour of grief
While interacting with the bereaved family, the party general secretary expressed solidarity with them and prayed for peace to the departed and forbearance to the bereaved to bear the inconsolable loss. He offered Fateha for the deceased.
On the occasion, Sagar said that JKNC right from its inception has been against violence of all hues. “No emancipated society will approve of such dastardly and heinous acts. Violence begets violence; the vicious circle has no end. The motive of my visit to the bereaved family is to express unison with them in their grief on the behalf of the party leadership. Sanctity of every human life should be respected. I pay my earnest tributes to the deceased. I pray for the highest echelons to the deceased in Jannat and fortitude to the bereaved to bear the loss,” he said.
Sagar also said the JK Police represents a saga of sacrifices in Jammu and Kashmir. The public service and sacrifice rendered by JKP is a proud legacy which needs to be respected and lauded by one and all. “I am hopeful that the administration will support the families of slain cops who lost their lives the other day at Baghat. The government is duty bound to ensure that it doesn't suffer on any account,” he said.
He further added the spike in the violence against security forces and JKP debunks the claims of the government on the return of peace to Jammu and Kashmir. One is at its wits end to comprehend what qualifies as peace to government. “The deteriorating security situation in the valley is the telling indictment of the reckless policies of GOI. Incidents like these should act as an eye opener for them. The jinxed fate of ours has devoured thousands of our people, including security forces. One can only hope that the GOI will rise up to the occasion and take tangible steps to usher in peace in Kashmir in real sense. This party believes cannot be done without respecting the wishes and aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir,” he said. Sagar was accompanied by party leader Advocate Reyaz Ahmed Khan and others.
Meantime Party’s Central Zone President Ali Muhammad Dar visited the house of slain SPO Muhammad Altaf Najar of Khari Gund, Nagam and expressed sympathies with the bereaved family and prayed for peace to departed soul. Party’s District Functionaries led by District Secretary Ghulam Muhammad Rather visited the home of slain COP Muhammad Yousuf at Zurhama Kupwara. The visiting party functionaries paid tributes to the slain cop and prayed for peace to his soul. They also offered Fatiha for the deceased and expressed unison with the bereaved. (KNS)
