Farooq Rehmani condemns attack on APHC office in Srinagar

ISLAMABAD, Jan 29 (SABAH): : Muhammad Farooq Rehmani Chairman J&K People’s Freedom League, a founding constituent member of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference AJK chapter Sunday strongly castigated India for attacking the office of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference in Srinagar, accusing the Indian establishment of choking the sole representative institution of the Kashmiris for their basic rights and inalienable birth right of self-determination.

He said, ” APHC has a status as observer before the OIC,and international and regional organisations including many Indian politicians and constitionalists have in the past remained engaged with it for finding out a solution to this international dispute of the erstwhile princely State of British India. Hence , it is against the UN Charter and the UN resolutions on Kashmir to seize office of the organisation–only representative and collective voice for a peaceful solution of the Kashmir dispute “.

Farooq Rehmani asked the UN to take notice of the prejudicial and revengeful step of the Modi regime against the APHC. At the same time , he urged upon Indian jurists , legal luminaries and others to take into account the consequences of such draconian measures by the Modi regime, explicitly warning that no such action , however harsh and punitive would deter the people of the Occupied region from continuing their just and peaceful struggle for the right of self-determination.
