Srinagar: Hurriyat Chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has said that government and administration are directly responsible for increasing the problems and the sufferings of Kashmiris.
Asserting that government and administration have failed at each level, he made it clear that house detentions, banning activities using force, and spreading fear won’t stop APHC from highlighting the political and economic issues plaguing Kashmir.
While addressing a mammoth gathering at Jamia Masjid, Mirwaiz said that while fighting for the right to self determination for Kashmiris,
APHC can’t ignore the daily problems and issues faced by the common masses and anything which would hurt the Kashmiri interests. He said that government and administration have failed to play even its basic role towards the people. He said instead of solving the daily problems of Kashmiris, the government is busy in usurping the religious,
political and economical rights of the people. He further said that in Kashmiri, particularly in Srinagar the roads were in wretched conditions, there was shortage of water, power, and LPG and inflation of essential commodities was such that it has become impossible for
the common man to live even a simple life. He said historic city of Srinagar was being kept devoid of basic fascilities following a well orchestrated conspiracy. Ignoring the historic centrality of Srinagar, Mirwaiz said was a cause of concern.
APHC Chairman said that the winter season has already set in and the government instead of decreasing the prices of LPG has increased it manifold. He said that besides there is complete shortage of LPG which clearly reflects the anti-people policies of the administration.
He further appealed the business fraternity to provide relief to the common masses by putting embargo on black marketing and over storing of essenatial commodities.
On the occasion Mirwaiz announced that a Tabligh session would be organized at Jamia masjid Arampora Chadoora on 9 novemeber Friday to discuss the ongoing situation in Kashmir.
