We have nothing to celebrate on Eid: DAK Srinagar: President, Doctors Association Kashmir (DAK), Dr Nisar ul Hassan, today said that the society has nothing to celebrate on Eid as its not even allowed to express free opinion. “I was victimized for raising issues of public concern. I was punished for unearthing spurious drug scam and spearheading a campaign against fake drug perpetrators who are roaming free. My endeavors in this connection deserve to be applauded rather than unleashing subjugation against me”, DAK President said in a statement. “My suspension is vindictiveness of certain forces behind the curtain and is simply means to deter me from raising voice against legitimate grievances. The suspension is unjustified and illegal as it is ironically against freedom of speech which is my inalienable right”, he said. Kashmir is under siege and Kashmiris are in a state of constant fear, the president said, adding that how can we celebrate Eid at a place where freedom of thought is criminalized, dissent is treason and criticism is espionage? He said how can we celebrate Eid when our loved ones are languishing in jails for demanding end to the miseries of Kashmiris? We have no reason to celebrate Eid because Muslims in Gaza are slaughtered in a well-planned conspiracy, the president said, adding that Kashmir is an unfortunate tormented land where on Eid grief stricken people instead of celebrations have to mourn.
