From Greater Kashmir
Srinagar, Apr 29: Chairman of Hurriyat Conference (M) Mirwaiz Umar Farooq Friday said that legislative assembly was passing anti-Kashmir laws ‘to strengthen the hands of India in Jammu and Kashmir.’
Addressing the Friday congregation at historic Jamia Masjid here, Mirwaiz said that state legislature was no different from the forces in oppressing and usurping the rights of Kashmiris.
“Army, BSF and CRPF oppress Kashmiris and in the same way assembly was endorsing the draconian Acts and passing legislations against the interests of Kashmiris,” he said.
