100 days of uprising feather in Kashmiri’s Struggle: Hurriyat (G)

Praises traders, transporters for ‘Willful Support’ despite losses; thanks medicos, volunteers for selfless service

Hurriyat Conference (G) on Sunday said that completion of 100 days of present uprising with persistent resilience by the people of Kashmir has added one more feather to the prolonged struggle for right to self determination of Kashmiris.
“After Burhan’s killing on July 8, whole Kashmir poured in streets forcing, not only state but the whole sub-continent into the heated debate, bringing both nuclear nations at the verge of collision, attracting the world’s attention to the crimes committed by India for which we as a nation are paying a heavy price,” Hurriyat (G) spokesperson said in a statement.
“With 90 killings of our youth, more than 500 blinded, about 15000 crushed and humbled and above 10,000 including juveniles slapped PSA and languishing in jails, our traders despite bearing the massive losses of more than 140 crore daily have willfully supported this movement and the worst hit was our transport fraternity, whose contribution is unparalleled as they have to bear the main brunt of the prevailing circumstances,” he said.
“After July 9 there was beeline of injured and maimed populace, our worthy doctors particularly those in ophthalmology department, Para-medical staff, ambulance drivers worked day and night to help the patients at the cost of their own comfort. We owe our sincere thanks to Dr Natrajan for his expert skill to augment our local doctors, performing more than one thousand minor and major eye surgeries,” he said.
Hurriyat (G) while praising volunteers for their ‘selfless work’ said; “Our volunteers wholeheartedly provided much needed food and medicine to the people from far-flung areas, although champions of “Insaniyat and Kashmiryat” roughed them up and forced them to windup these camps. Our educational institutions, their owners and administrators, teachers and students worked hard to foil the government’s attempts to send the kids to the schools in such a charged environment and illusionise the myth of normalcy.”

“This whole picture of death and destruction would have remained unheard, had our worthy media not put this pain and agony to the outside world through their news items, write-ups, columns, cartoons and editorials. It seems as if their words came deep down from their core of heart as they themselves where hit very hard personally as well as professionally,” said the spokesperson.
He said local Bitul Maals have a huge responsibility to reach out to the needy people and they do it to their maximum potential.
