Srinagar: Hurriyat Confernce chairman Syed Ali Geelani on Monday said New Delhi was pursuing “sectarian dogma and propagating fabricated stories against pro-freedom leadership in Jammu and Kashmir.
In a statement issued, Geelani while referring to prevailing “gloomy” situation and commenting over unabated brutalities inflicted by authorities and intimidating statements said that authorities in Delhi through its military might seem desperate to cow down spirits of people. “All the follies played by them will culminate at their defeat,” he said, adding, “It has remained our stance and we have been saying that we will never succumb to any pressure and will take movement to its logical end.” The octogenarian leader while referring to “coercive measures and atrocities perpetrated by forces during last seventy years”, said that despite unabated killings, plunder, arson, showering bullets and pellets on public gatherings, maiming and blinding innocent children, brute torture of youth, braid chopping and sexual assault on women, they failed to break the resolve and commitment of people with freedom movement.
Lashing at authorities in New Delhi for their deception, He said that they are following their particular sectarian dogma and propagating fabricated stories and framing fake allegations against pro-freedom leadership.
Appealing people Geelani called for unity, dedication and sincerity and asked to stand against “communal regime in Delhi, their stooges, local pro- Indian political parties.”
