SRINAGAR: Occupying Indian forces have launched an operation in different areas of Muslim dominated villages across the Pir Panjal range.
Locals told media that the operation was aimed at silencing dissenting voices as the Modi regime in India was trying to win the forthcoming general elections once again.
The situation in Kashmir has become a blot on the face of the world’s so-called biggest democracy due to rampant rights violations at the hands of Indian occupying forces.
The Muslim majority Pir Panjal range separates Kashmir Valley from hilly districts of Jammu region.
The ‘Sarv Shakti’, which means omnipotence, operation has been simultaneously launched in Shopian and Pulwama districts on one side and in Rajouri and Poonch districts on the other side of the Lower Himalayan region.
Meanwhile, Ghulam Muhammad Khan Sopori, Muhammad Saleem Zargar, Advocate Arshad Iqbal, Hafza Bano and Shafiqur Rehman of the APHC condemned the Indian government for launching the operation in which the forces were set to pick people on flimsy charges to keep them in illegal custody.
They called upon the United Nations Human Rights Council, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and other rights organizations to take notice of the situation.
They said that it was a legal and moral in obligation of the international community to fulfill their promise of giving the right to Self-determination to the people of Kashmir to decide about their future.
Under the resolutions of the UN Security Council, a plebescite was to be held in Kashmir to give the people a chance to decide their future.
But for the last over seven decades, India has occupied the region using brutal force and the world remains a silent spectator.
