Srinagar: The Hurriyat Conference chairman, Syed Ali Geelani while laying stress on shutdown call on December 8, against proposed visit of Indian prime minister, Narinder Modi, said that India with all its power is overlooking the sacrifices and added that situation is grim and gloomy contrary to what India projects in its campaign. He said that India in its propaganda campaign is portraying freedom movement of Jammu and Kashmir in a distorted manner as if people have expressed their faith in Indian democracy. Killing and torture goes unabated as each and every soul in Kashmir is up against India and pursues his right for freedom. The STF, forces and police personel under the garb of AFSPA enjoy free hand for their suppressive measures against the innocent people and we without any exaggerations can say that they with each passing day subject youth, political workers, elderly and students to torture, arbitrary measures and detentions, Geelani added. Syed Ali Geelani while referring to the history of resistance movement, said that India with its power of arrogance is denying our right to freedom and added that it is all with its military might that India forcibly occupied the state. Referring to commitments made by India with people of Kashmir, Geelani said, though India in international forums has pledged to allow people to express their aspiration but despite all its commitments, is defying all its legal, constitutional and moral obligation. We presented cherished sacrifices in terms of blood and we won’t allow all these sacrifices go waste and we are sure that despite all its stubbornness, their deceptive policies and egoism will vanish into winds and sooner or later it will collapse. Their approach towards minorities will prove disastrous for India, said Geelani. Syed Ali Geelani asked India if they want to see the ground reality, then it is better to withdraw forces and face reality. Reiterating his appeal for shutdown call on December 8, Geelani said, we want to convey that Kashmir is not a legal part of India and in his appeal urged business community, transporters, employees and educational institution to make call a success. Geelani also called for shutdown and election boycott on December 9 in Uri, Rafiabad, Sopore, Baramullah, Gulmarg, Chadoora, Budgam, Beerwah, Khansahib, Charar Shrief, Pampore, Pulwama, Rajpora and other adjacent localities.
