ISLAMABAD (Web Desk/APP) – Hurriyet leadership has unanimously said that the solution to the Indian-occupied Kashmir dispute lies only in securing the Kashmiris right to self-determination in accordance with the resolutions of the United Nations on Kashmir.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the Chairman of All Parties Hurriyet Conference, Syed Ali Gilani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, Shabbir Ahmad Shah and other Hurriyet leaders while rejecting the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s assertions on talks on Kashmir maintained that the universal principle of Right to Self-determination was the only road to peace in Jammu and Kashmir.
The Chairman of Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front, Mohammad Yasin Malik and other Hurriyet leaders in their separate statements denounced the Indian Finance Minister Arun Jaitley’s remarks against Kashmiri protesters.
