Srinagar: Hurriyat Conference headed by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq paid glorious tributes to the martyrs of Gaw Kadal massacre on 21 January 1990.
“The massacre committed by Indian forces on January 21, 1990 at Gaw Kadal claimed over 53 lives and left 250 people injured. Over the past three decades, the major massacres that include Hawal, Gaw Kadal, Bijbehera, Zakoora, Sopore, Handwara, Kupwara, Shopian, Chattisingpora, Wandhama, Machil, Kunanposhpora, Pathribal are the blot on the Indian democracy and reflects the open aggression of government forces on people of Kashmir,” said a spokesman of the Hurriyat Conference.
The Hurriyat Conference strongly condemned the arrest of JKLF chief Muhammad Yasin Malik and others. “Even peaceful activities of resistance camp have become an eye-sore for the authorities,” he said.
