Mirvaiz-led Hurriyat conference failed to represent aspirations of Kashmiris: Sheikh Yaqoob

“We support Syed Ali Shah Geelani’s forum”

Srinagar, May 14: Announcing its unconditional support to veteran Pro-Freedom leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Jammu Kashmir Peoples League Chairman, Sheikh Mohd Yaqoob Thursday said that Mirvaiz-led Hurriyat Conference failed to represent the aspirations of oppressed Kashmiri people.

“Jammu Kashmir Peoples League which held deliberations over the prevailing political scenario of Kashmir in past several weeks has now decided to support veteran Pro-Freedom leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani’s forum for its pro-people and pro-freedom policies,” Sheikh Yaqoob said in an issued statement.

He said that during the course of deliberations it was found that only Syed Ali Shah Geelani’s forum is respecting and fallowing the 1993 constitution for the peaceful resolution of Kashmir dispute.

“Distressed with the way Mirvaiz-led Hurriyat forum worked in past few years and sidelined the constitution, we earlier quitted the forum and now the party has decided to support Hurriyat (G),” he said, adding it is the reason that dozens of constituents from last three years have quit the group.

Yaqoob said that all those persons who still sneak into the cozy corridors of Mirviaz-Group are cheaters and will be given no space in the party fold. “One man calming to be representatives of JKPL are actually among those who have sold the sacrifices and mission of martyrs and are on the parole of Indian intelligence agencies,” he said.
