ISLAMABAD: The All Parties Hurriyat Conference Chairman, Syed Ali Gilani has strongly condemned the ban on the civilian vehicular movement on Srinagar-Jammu highway for two days in a week saying that caging the entire population in their houses to facilitate the uninterrupted movement of Indian is shameful and humiliating violation of fundamental rights.
According to Kashmir Media Service (KMS) , Syed Ali Gilani in a statement issued in Srinagar Thursday said after creating graveyards in length and breadth of the territory, rulers in Delhi very brazenly try to strangulate the common people, which can have catastrophic ramifications.
He said that power intoxicated Indian ruling class should bear in mind that Jammu and Kashmir was not their property and its people were not their slaves and whenever and whatever they want they will be free to do so.
The APHC chairman said that roads were means of connectivity and were not only used in normal life, but were of prime importance in some desperate and emergency situations. “Curtailing and banning such a basic and fundamental lifeline amounts to an unforgivable crime against helpless population.”
