In Indian Illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, All Parties Hurriyat Conference leaders Khadim Hussain and Syed Sibte Shabbir Qummi in their statements in Srinagar have termed as extremely absurd the statement of the New Delhi-imposed Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha, in which he called Jammu and Kashmir as an integral part of India.

The leaders said that Indian rulers cannot change the UN-acknowledged disputed status of Jammu and Kashmir through their baseless statements.

Meanwhile, the Special Investigation Unit, today, attached a house of one Muhammad Ishaq Malik in Islamabad district on the charge of being supporter of the freedom movement.

New Delhi’s dreaded National Investigation Agency raided a residential house in Habbakadal area of Srinagar, harassed inmates and took away property documents and other valuables with them.

Indian troops also launched cordon and search operations in different areas of Islamabad, Pulwama and Kupwara districts. 

On the other hand, scores of activists of J&K Congress, including its president Vikar Rasool Wani and Working President Raman Bhalla, were arrested during a march to the Governor House in Jammu, today, over the Modi regime’s anti-people policies in the territory.
