Mirwaiz-led AAC mourns the passing of Advocate Raja Jahangir in Srinagar
Srinagar: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), the Awami Action Committee (AAC), led by senior APHC leader Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, expressed profound grief over the passing of Advocate Raja Jahangir Khan.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Advocate Jahangir Ali Khan, a well-known personality of Kathidarwaza Raja Mohalla Srinagar, passed away during the intervening night of January 13-14, 2025, at the age of 72. He was the son of the late Raja Mohammad Ayub Khan, a former General Secretary of the AAC. Due to his ill health, Raja Jahangir had to abandon his law practice but remained active in social and public welfare work.
In a condolence statement in Srinagar, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and AAC leadership paid rich tributes to Advocate Jahangir, highlighting his family’s unwavering dedication to the AAC’s mission. They noted that Raja Mohammad Ayub had worked tirelessly under the leadership of the organisation’s founder, Shaheed-e-Millat Mirwaiz Moulvi Muhammad Farooq, to promote its cause.
“The deceased’s family, including Advocate Raja Jahangir, made commendable contributions to advancing the public welfare and social mission of Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir,” the AAC stated.
Extending heartfelt sympathies to Advocate Jahangir’s son, Advocate Raja Sajid Ali Khan, and the bereaved family, the AAC prayed for Allah’s mercy on the departed soul and patience for the family.
A high-level AAC delegation visited the deceased’s residence to personally convey Mirwaiz Umar Farooq’s condolences, solidarity, and message of support.
