Srinagar: In occupied Kashmir, the Chairman of All Parties Hurriyet Conference, Syed Ali Gilani has said that India is working on different plans including construction of soldier colonies, separate townships for Kashmiri Pandits and introduction of Industrial Policy to prolong its forced occupation over Jammu and Kashmir.
Syed Ali Gilani said this while presiding over the meeting of APHC advisory council at his Hyderpora residence in Srinagar, Kashmir Media Service (KMS) reported. He said that work on these anti-people projects had been expedited since the PDP-BJP coalition came into power. He pointed out that communal forces had started materializing the dream of RSS through use of government machinery.
Syed Ali Gilani deplored that puppet Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti and her party PDP had sold away everything that belonged to Kashmir and the Kashmiri people including their identity. He said that no Kashmiri was against the return of Pandits but Indian policymakers wanted to divide Muslims and Pandits in the name of religion.
