Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front chairperson, Muhammad Yasin Malik Friday said that “RSS backed PDP-BJP rule” in Kashmir is promoting communalism.He said that intimidations to Muslims living in Jammu division are not acceptable to any Kashmiri.Malik in a press statement issued here said that attacks on Muslims living in various parts of Jammu division is not acceptable to any Kashmiri and recent attacks in Kathua and criminal silence of “so-called” rulers on these attacks actually clears the fact that RSS led PDP-BJP rulers in Jammu Kashmir are hell bent upon destroying the fabrics of unity in our society and are promoting communalism for their lust of power and authority.“Attacks on Muslims and intimidating them started long back from Gool Gulab Garh and now this condemnable exercise is being practiced in Rajouri, Poonch, Doda, Kishtwar, Baderwah, Rambhan, Kathua, Udhampur and other parts and areas of Jammu region.
Malik said that RSS and other communal organizations backed by it have been given a free hand to “terrorize” Muslims and recent attacks on Muslims and burning down their properties is a glaring example of free hand.He said that “shameless rulers” do not allow any peaceful political activity in Kashmir but “RSS Lathi Bardar” rallies and intimidation programs are not only allowed but facilitated too.He said that this “government sponsored communal terrorism” is not acceptable to any Kashmiri and we as a living nation stand against it and want to assure our brethren in Jammu region that we are on their back and ready to do everything possible for stopping chauvinist attacks on them.Rejecting the recent packages and orders of probes by chief minister, JKLF chairman said that killers cannot become judges and provide justice to their victims. He said that previous probes and commissions be these judicial or any other, never provided justice to the victims of oppression and never charged or booked any killer or oppressor in the past also but present rulers have actually crossed the limits of “brazenness” by appointing police officers the job of providing justice to their victims.He asked, “How can killers be judges and how can oppressors be accepted as impartial.”
Malik said that after killing and blinding our young men and women, “shameless rulers” are now putting a cost on their lives and eyesights and are trying to provide a clean chit to their “rampaging” forces by appointing killers as the judges.
He said that for five months forces and police vandalized and destroyed people’s properties, orchards and crores worth crores but these “shameless” rulers today are saying that forces destroyed nothing which shows the audacity of these power hungry people.“Kashmiri reject these gimmicks and politics of deceit and want to tell these shameless rulers that their hypocritical policies and anti-Muslim and anti-Kashmiri politics stands exposed now.”Meanwhile, scores of JKLF leaders and activists Friday staged a peaceful protest sit-in near press enclave against growing attacks on Muslims in Jammu especially recent attacks on Muslims in Kathua.The activists of JKLF in large numbers took out a protest rally from JKLF office at Abi Guzar and marched towards Lalchowk, the statement said.“Police and forces had blocked the road leading towards Lalchowk that forced the participants of the rally to sit-down on a peaceful protest. Various JKLF leaders addressed the protesters who were raising slogans in favor of freedom and against intimidating Muslims living in Jammu region by RSS backed Hindu chauvinists. The protest was organized on the appeal of joint resistance leadership and protestors sat down on road for about an hour.” (CNS)
