JAMMU, Oct 4: Chairman Anjuman Minhaj-e-Rasool, Maulana Sayed Athar Dehlavi, a noted religious personality has said that separatists should stop exploitation of the Kashmir youth for their vested interests and come out to contest elections and contribute for the peace, prosperity and development of the Jammu and Kashmir State.
Addressing a press conference here today, Maulana Dehlavi said State of Jammu and Kashmir has already suffered a lot due to terrorism and bloodshed. Due to bandhs and strikes the economy of the State has been badly hit. The separatists always exploited the youth of Kashmir and used them for their vested interests. Many youth were killed in violence. A common Kashmiri youth has realized that own children of the Hurriyat leaders are studying abroad and they are not used in any such strike or agitation while innocent Kashmiris are being made scapegoats. Many of them have been used for `Pathar-Bazi’.
Maulana disclosed that during a workshop organized by his organizations in Kashmir during his visit recently, he sought the opinion of many youth. They spoke against Hurriyat leaders and also maintained that they see their better future with India which separatists have always taught to lesson to them to speak against India for their own motives. He cautioned the people of Kashmir against the designs of the separatists and appealed them to teach lesson to such people who exploit them and use as their own tools.
Criticising Chief Minister Omar Abdullah for his remarks challenging accession of State with Union of India, Maulana said the accession of the State with the Union of Indian is full and final and no one should have any doubt in it. He said that Omar Abdullah, who is holding a responsible position should not raise such issues to create controversies.
While supporting dialogue between India and Pakistan, Maulana said though at present relations between the two sides are not congenial yet he would always support dialogue and peace initiative. He warned the Pakistani leadership not to allow its soil to be used by terrorist organizations Jesh, LeT or others to target India. He said that India is peace loving country and it is better Pakistani leadership realize the might and strength of this great country otherwise it would perish from the map.
