Srinagar: Paying tributes to militants killed in Chattergam area of Chadoora in central Kashmir’s Budgam district, Hurriyat Conference (G) chairman Syed Ali Geelani blamed Indian authorities and said their “insensitivity and unconcern” is the sole reason for this unabated bloodshed.
“The sacred blood of martyrs has indebted the whole nation, and it is our collective responsibility to take the ongoing movement to its logical conclusion,” Geelani said in a statement issued to GNS.
“We have been deprived our basic and fundamental rights and our young generation is trying to break the shackles of this forced slavery,” he said.
Geelani said the prevailing uncertainty in state and “unrealistic” approach of authorities is the basic cause of this human tragedy and it is the reason that youth are losing their precious lives.
Authorities are responsible for this horrendous situation, he said adding that authorities are adamant to carry forward this situation and prolong this “unauthorized occupation”.
“This arrogance, haughtiness and persistent denial can’t hold water for long and India has to come to terms with the writing on the wall lest this unresolved and unaddressed issue can erupt and burst anytime, engulfing millions of people in this region,” Geelani said. (GNS)
