Reacting to the statement of Huriyat Conference (M) Mirwaiz Umar Farooq wherein he had slammed Kashmir’s civil society group allegedly for piding people in Kashmir over Tosamadidan lease issue, the group Thursday reiterated that it is raising the issue on humanitarian grounds and no one can stop them.The Huriyat Conference (M) in a seminar held at its party headquarters on April 16 had stated that civil society should not poke its nose in every matter and stop their campaign against those who have sacrificed their lives for Azadi movement.
The civil society raising Tosa Maidan lease issue on Thursday came in open stating that they don’t have any ambitions of gaining any political platform and the group has no power sharing. Various members of the group whishing not to be named told KNS that if the issue of Tosa Maidan lease is given a political color then it will be difficult to resolve the issue. “This is possible that the issue could be related to Kashmir dispute and then we have to look towards Indo-Pak dialogue so that it could be resolved.”“We want to resolve it as humanitarian issue as the lives of the people living in the area is at stake, said another member, adding that the political leadership must not feel insecure as the society has no ambition to join the political fray. We are raising this issue as per our conscience like every Kashmiri who at present is concerned over the lease we will continue our efforts in this direction.”
