Srinagar: Stating that entire Kashmir especially Srinagar has been turned into a military garrison ahead of the Indian Prime Minister’s visit, Hurriyat Conference on Saturday strongly condemned the house detention of its chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq.
In a statement issued here, a spokesman said that entire Kashmir especially Srinagar has been turned into a military garrison ahead of the Indian Prime Minister’s visit as every road is dotted with forces personnel and resistance leadership are caged in their homes or police stations and massive frisking and search operations being conducted everywhere, leading to harassment of general public.
The Hurriyat Conference said that the way various crucial road links have been closed as part of the
“so-called” security measures and people left in the lurch and forced to change routes and travel through long distances, motorcycles being seized, vehicles stopped for intense frisking, erection of barricades on main roads in Srinagar is nothing but a deliberate attempt to add to the miseries of people.
