AJK President, PM and Inf. Minister deliver messages paying rich tributes to the sacrifices of Jammu Martyrs

MUZAFFARABAD: (Parliament Times) The Azad Jammu and Kashmir President, Prime Minister and Information Minister have said that the first week of November is bleakest chapter of Kashmir liberation struggle when ruler in Jammu shed the blood of innocent Muslims on November 6 in 1947.
In his separate message on Jammu Martyrs, Day President Sardar Muhammad Masood Khan noted that the savagery and brutality demonstrated on this day by the savage Hindus and Mahraja forces in Jammu against Muslims gave a new impetus to Kashmir liberation struggle. Around 2,50,000 Muslims who wanted to migrate to Pakistan were mercilessly massacred by Hindu fanatics in connivance with despotic forces of Mahraja in Jammu, he added. He said Jammu Martyrs Day is commemorated every year with renewed resolve that the mission for which Jammu martyrs had laid their lives would be completed at all cost. “Kashmiris also pledge on this day that they would make every effort for the freedom of their State from the usurper forcers. People of Jammu and Kashmir had passed a resolution even before creation of the country affirming for complete freedom of their state and its accession to Pakistan” Masood observed. He said Hindus and Mahraja forces colluded and conspired to bring about killing of Muslims on a horrific scale. He said India continued those tyrannies even after partition against Kashmiris who have been struggling hard for their right to self-determination and have offered over hundred thousand lives during this long struggle for liberation.
rime Minister Raja Farooq Haider Khan in his message offered rich tributes to the sacrifices of Jammu martyrs and pledged that the torch alighted by martyrs would never be let to be put off. He reiterated his government’s resolve that people of Azad Kashmir would never lag behind in the struggle for Kashmir liberation however big sacrifices they might have to offer. He said Indian forces along with puppet government in IHK have been stifling the voice of Kashmiris, committing all sorts of atrocities and repressions against them but gallant people of Jammu and Kashmir are offering exemplary resistance for their freedom. He said Islamic culture and traditions are being attacked by the Indian forces in the held valley and nefarious attempts of changing the demography of the State are also underway. “Kashmiris want to live with Pakistan for which they have offered their three generations in a bid to free themselves from India which is clear from the fact that the martyrs prefer to be buried wrapped in green Pakistani flags” he added. PM Haider maintained that after the martyrdom of Burhan Muzaffar Wani, and Mannan Wani Kashmir liberation struggle has entered into a new phase. Kashmiri youth are out now to do or die to freeing their State from Indian subjugation, he remarked.
AJK Information Minister Mushtaq Ahmed Minhas in his message said that there is no precedence in human history of the massive scale with which Muslims who wanted to migrate to Pakistan were martyred on this day in 1947 in Jammu. Even children, women and elderly people were not spared by the despotic forces, he said and added that it continues to this day in IHK. Indian forces are engaged in massacring Kashmiri Muslims who stood up to achieve their internationally recognized right to self-determination, he observed. He assured the people of the held valley that people of AJK stand behind them in their just struggle for right for liberation. He said the base camp government was channelizing all its resources for Kashmir liberation struggle.
