While condemning the government’s move of sacking state employees on supporting the ongoing freedom movement, the Jama’at-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir has termed it as ‘undemocratic’ and ‘imperialistic mind set’ of present dispensation.
As per an official statement, Jama’at-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir has said, “Such move is an attempt to appease the people at helm in New-Delhi and those who are in Nagpur.”
“Factually the current dispensation has crossed all limits of tyranny. State employees, being a part and parcel of society, have every right to stand with their own brethren who are fighting peacefully against the repression by India. So sacking of subjugated and suppressed people clearly vindicates that state government seems to crush the peaceful voice with iron hand. Such move is unfair and undemocratic and quite against the norms of employment rules. By such tactics government will never succeed to retreat oppressed people from their birth right ‘right to self-determination’,” reads the statement.
Jama’at-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir has also denounced the arrest of employee leaders including EJAC president Abdul Qayoom wani.
Moreover, Jama’at-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir has also expressed its resentment over the current arrest spree by police and other forces agencies in various localities in Kashmir and urges authorities to release all detunes who have been detained during the current period, unconditionally which include Syed Ali Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, Mohammad Yasin Malik, Shabir Ahmad Shah, EJAC affiliated leaders, students and others.
Jama’at has also urged all national and international human rights groups to come forward and take concrete steps for the safeguard of Kashmiri people and take strong cognizance of the ‘barbarity and rights abuses’ perpetrated by Indian forces in the region.
