In Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the All Parties Hurriyat Conference has condemned intensified human rights violations asserting that the Modi-led Indian government has transformed the territory into an open prison.

The APHC leaders, in a meeting held in Srinagar, also condemned the ongoing cordon-and-search operations, mass arrests, property seizures, and other violations under the banner of Hindutva ideology.

The meeting sought the intervention by international human rights organizations to prevent the Indian government led by Narendra Modi and Amit Shah from sealing properties of the Kashmiri people, especially those demanding peace and freedom in the occupied territory.

They urged the world major powers to stop India from carrying out ethnic cleansing of the Kashmiris in the territory.

The APHC also warned that the Hindutva agenda's expansionist aspirations in Kashmir are destabilizing peace in South Asia, stating that the region is akin to a volcano whose eruption could have dire, far-reaching consequences.

A statement issued by APHC spokesperson Abdul Rashid Minhas after the meeting emphasized that despite extreme repression, the commitment and sacrifices of Kashmiri detainees and martyrs would eventually compel India to relinquish its illegal hold over IIOJK.

Since the revocation of occupied Jammu and Kashmir's special status in August 2019, the Modi regime has accelerated its campaign to seize properties of Kashmiris.

Meanwhile, employees of the Power Development Corporation sub-division in Kangan area of Gandarbal district took to the streets in protest, demanding the release of their salaries, withheld for over three months.
