Srinagar: Peoples Democratic Party President Mehbooba Mufti has denounced the authorities in Srinagar, Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, for not allowing party leaders and activists to take out a protest march against the abrogation of Article 370 on its sixth anniversary.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Mehbooba Mufti in a post on X said August 5 marks \u201ca black day\u201d for the entire Kashmiris, and the abrogation of the occupied Jammu and Kashmir\u2019s special status was the beginning of a broader assault on constitutional values of the country.<\/p>\n
She said on this day, the Constitution was subverted not by foreign hands, but from within, by a brute majority in the heart of our democracy. She said that IIOJK was turned into a laboratory, its people disempowered, its land dispossessed and its demography targeted.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday, that warning is unfolding across the country. In Bihar (SIR) threatens to disenfranchise lakhs. From Tamil Nadu to Kashmir non-local voters are being added en masse, paving the way for demographic manipulation and electoral distortion,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf India does not wake up now, what began in J-K will soon define the nation,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
Speaking to reporters, PDP leader Iltija Mufti said, \u201cOn August 5, 2019, the illegal abrogation of Article 370 was done, and the Constitution and the flag of J-K were taken away from us\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is the change that has taken place in the six years. We are a legal party, and even six years after the abrogation of Article 370, we are not being allowed to protest. We were put under house arrest six years ago and the common people of J&K, and political parties were put under arrest,\u201d she said. She said there has been no change even after six years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
