Srinagar: Castigating the government for its ‘anti people’ policies, Hurriyat (M) Chairman and Muttahida Majlis-e-Ulema (MMU) chief, Mirwaiz Farooq Monday said that though the Hurriyat (M) is striving for the political resolution of Kashmir issue but it can’t remain mute spectator on the vows and agonies faced by the people because of the government’s indifferent attitude towards their problems.
Addressing a Seerat-e-Majlis at Mujahir-e-Milat Masjid at Saraf Kadal Chowk in Shehar Khas after Zuhr (afternoon) prayers, the Mirwaiz while referring to the imposition of National Food Security Act (NFSA) in the state said that instead of providing proper amount of rice to the people (rice being the staple diet of Kashmiris) the government’s move has substantially reduced the monthly quota of every family and thus made them vulnerable to mal nutrition.
Mirwaiz said that in these chilling days of winter people are being denied adequate ration, electricity, cooking gas and kerosene oil which clearly speaks of an anti people policy of the government.
“NFSA is another black law for Kashmiris imposed with the intention to make them suffer and increase their agonies,” Mirwaiz said.
He added during the past few days, a number of delegations visiting him, expressed concern over implementation of NFSA.
“Kashmiris were already facing political, economic and other problems and now the government is busy in creating more troubles and problems for the people,” the statement quoted Mirwaiz.
Earlier, the Hurriyat (M) Chairman shed light on the life and times of Prophet (PBUH) and said Muslims everywhere were caught in a quagmire of problems and it was mostly because they were getting away from the teachings of the Prophet (PBUH) and the holy .
