Farooq Rehmani pays tribute to Ghulam Muhammad Bulla
Islamabad: Senior leader of All Parties Hurriyat Conference Azad Jammu and Kashmir (APHC-AJK) chapter Muhammad Farooq Rehmani, has paid rich tribute to noted Kashmiri Hurriyat activist, Ghulam Muhammad Bulla, on his martyrdom anniversary.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Ghulam Muhammad Bulla of Sopore, area of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, was tortured to death in Central Jail, Srinagar, on 15th February 1975 and was buried by the Indian police in Sopore without informing anybody to hide the crime they had committed behind the fortified walls of the prison.
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani in a statement issued in Islamabad said Ghulam Muhammad Bulla’s only “sin” was that he had participated in a strong anti-Indra-Abdullah Accord, which rejected the Kashmir freedom movement and plebiscite for Jammu and Kashmir by again bringing to power Sheikh Muhammad Abdullah after remaining in jail for over a decade.
He said the Accord of 1975 further paved the way for eroding important political and constitutional guarantees to IIOJK, as promised in 1947. He maintained that the Accord shook the entire IIOJK and people came out of their homes from every part of the occupied territory to protest against it and the murder of Ghulam Muhammad Bulla added fuel to fire, making the Indian establishment nervous everywhere.
“Today, when we remember those times of brutalities and martyrdom of a young patriot of Kashmir, the people get more excited and inspired never to surrender their rights before the modern racist Hindu state, but to make a pledge to take the mission of our martyrs to its logical end,” he maintained.
