“Kashmiri militants are fighting against Indian occupation from the last 27 years, and India has not succeeded in crushing the freedom struggle despite use of brutal force,” the spokesman said.
“Indian leadership must, without wasting more time, give Kashmiri people their Right to Self Determination. And also stop human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir. Instead of blaming Pakistan, Indian should read writing on the wall that it cannot sabotage the struggle in Kashmir,” he said. (KNS)
