Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) President Mehbooba Mufti on Wednesday alleged that ahead of the G20 Meeting, security agencies have unleashed an atmosphere of ‘fear ‘ in Kashmir.
“Different security agencies have unleashed an atmosphere of fear by arresting the youth and conducting raids all across the Kashmir valley ahead of the G20 Meeting,” Mufti told reporters here
The G20 meeting is going to be held next week for which the authorities are making all arrangements to conduct the event peacefully.
The former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister alleged that schools have been closed and shopkeepers are being directed to keep their shops open and security agencies are conducting random raids all across the Kashmir valley creating fear among the people.
“Everybody is being threatened in the Kashmir valley”, she said.
Mehbooba said: “BJP wants to represent Kashmir like a Trophy to give this impression to the world that everything is right in Kashmir. We all know what is right in Jammu and Kashmir”, she said.
She alleged that BJP is running its own agenda bypassing the constitution of the country.
She said that Article 370 was a bridge between the people of Jammu and Kashmir and the rest of the country which BJP demolished and pushed the people of this state to the wall.
Regarding the movie “Kerala story”, she said unfortunately the BJP government is promoting such films which are spreading hatred in society.
She said the result of the movie was evident in Jammu medical college where students of a community were beaten mercilessly during the discussions on this film.
“BJP wants to fight people with each other on communal basis…first it was Kashmir Files and now The Kerala story”, she alleged.
She alleged that no hearing is taking place of those detainees who are languishing in jails of Jammu and Kashmir and outside. She said if in any case hearing starts in the court the authorities are not presenting the witnesses.
She said if PDP had resources :we will first fight for those youth who are languishing in jails of Jammu and Kashmir and outside for the past five years and their parents are not even in a position to at least visit their relatives.
