Civil society castigates BJP regime’s anti Kashmir policies
June 30, 2024

Civil society in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir has urged the United Nations to intervene and resolve the Kashmir dispute in accordance with its Security Council resolutions.

Civil society members, in a statement issued after a meeting in Srinagar, condemned the Narendra Modi-led Indian regime's brutal tactics to suppress Kashmiris' rights and drew attention to the plight of political detainees and the use of judiciary for political vendetta.

The meeting lamented that Kashmiris are not only arrested but their homes, properties, and lands are also seized on concocted charges.

They appealed the international community to rescue Kashmiris from India's political injustice and military siege.

India’s National Investigation Agency conducted searches at multiple locations in Rajouri district, seizing mobile phones, laptops, and other gadgets.

Meanwhile, several Jammu-based political parties have appealed to the Kashmiri people to take to the streets for the restoration of their political rights, citing the Modi government's insincerity in restoring special status to occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

The parties, including Jammu Democratic Alliance, Jammu Justice Party, Dogra Peoples Front, and Intellectual Sikh Forum, in their statements in Jammu, also decried the Indian government's attempt to fiddle with the unique identity of occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

Congress IIOJK President Vikar Rasool Wani lamented that occupied Jammu and Kashmir suffers from economic backwardness and extreme joblessness due to the BJP's policies.
