HYDERABAD: Jamaat-i-Islami (JI) Sindh emir Mohammad Hussain Mehnati has said that party chief Senator Sirajul Haq will lead the ‘Kashmir march’ which is to set off from Hyderabad on Oct 13.
Speaking to party workers in Latifabad on Monday, he said India would land itself in trouble after playing with blood and fire in the occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
He predicted dismemberment of India because of its own policies. He observed that Indian oppression for 72 years could not break the spirit of Kashmiri people.
The JI leader pointed out that the United States faced an ignominious defeat in Afghanistan, and said India would also taste the same in occupied Kashmir.
He told party workers to mobilise the masses for the Oct 13 Kashmir March.
He strongly condemned the unending communication blockade and news blackout in Kashmir that had entered its 49th day.
“Over eight million Kashmiri Muslims do not have access to food, medicine, mosques, hospitals and educational institutions,” he observed, and deplored that people were not even allowed to say Friday prayers in mosques.
“Millions of people are virtually imprisoned,” he remarked. He said that rulers of Muslim states should evolve a joint strategy and take decision in order to rid people of Kashmir of this oppression.
Sindh JI information secretary Mujahid Channa, district emir Tahir Majeed and other leaders attended the gathering.
