Muzaffarabad: (Parliament Times) JKLF leaders on Friday made a passionate appeal to the United Nations urging the highest body to take necessary measures to save lives and property of common masses living on both sides of Cease Fire Line.
Expressing their serious concern over the loss of precious human lives and property due to continued cross firing / mortar shelling between the armies of the two countries on CFL the JKLF leaders maintained that the cross firing has turned the lives of people living on both sides of CFL in to the hell. In a memorandum addressed to the UN secretary the JKLF voiced its anger and anguish over the silence of international community towards the pathetic situation of Kashmiri people living on both sides of CFL.
“The magnitude of sufferings, death, destruction and disruption of daily life along the CFL especially in AJK is very high, but the international community especially the highest world body like UN remains unmoved”, the memorandum said adding that the party’s campaign against cross firing on CFL had very recently taken life of our party member Naeem Ahmed Butt who fell to the bullet of AJK police at Dharamsal Seher Kukuty Bridge in district Poonch during a peaceful march on 16th March, 2018 announced by party against cross firing and in solidarity with its victims.
Earlier the JKLF activists held a peaceful protest outside Press Club in Muzaffarabad, AJK against cross firing / shelling on CFL. Demanding an immediate end of cross firing on the line of control they observed that frequent exchange of fire between the two armies standing eye ball to eye ball at LoC results in deaths and destruction.
They said that reverting back to 2003 Line of Control (LOC) ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan or cessation of at least 10 km’s by both the armies from their respective sides were among the options available to avoid further loss of lives and property until the final resolution of Kashmir issue.
