ISLAMABAD, Aug 24 (APP):The All Parties Hurriyet Conference (APHC) has sharply condemned BJP-led
Indian government’s use of military force, harsh black laws, and coer
cive cordon and search operations as a part of a deliberate strategy to undermine the Kashmiri people’s demand for political justice.
In a statement issued in Srinagar, APHC spokesperson Advocate Abdul Rashid Mihas criticized New Delhi for its aggressive suppression of dissent in
Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) through draconian laws such as the Public Safety Act (PSA) and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA).
Mihas voiced concern over the ongoing state terrorism and the arbitrary arrest of Kashmiri youth by
Indian forces’ personnel during the so-called cordon and search operations.
The APHC denounced the BJP regime for systematically violating the fundamental right
s of the Kashmiri people, including their freedoms of expression, press, and political, social, business, and religious activities. The statement called on the international community to not remain passive in the face of these ongoing abuses in IIOJK.
Mihas urged
India to abandon its imperialistic stance on Kashmir, acknowledge the current realities, and address the Kashmir dispute in accordance with commitments previously made by
Indian leaders at the UN and in public statements.
The APHC emphasized that the dire situation in IIOJK demanded urgent global attention.
The spokesman appealed to the United Nations to fulfill its role in resolving the Kashmir dispute in line with its resolutions and the aspiration
s of the Kashmiri people, in order to ensure lasting peace in South Asia.
