Jammu,
July 13, 2019 (PPI-OT): In occupied Kashmir, the Jammu and Kashmir Peoples
Movement (JKPM) has paid glowing tributes to the martyrs of July 13, 1931 and
all those who became victims of oppression during the last seventy two years of
political struggle.
The JKPM
organized a function in Rajouri area of Jammu region in connection with the
Martyrs’ Day. Addressing on the occasion, APHC leader and the JKPM Chairman,
Mir Shahid Saleem, said that it was oppression and suppression unleashed by the
Dogra rulers that led to the historic revolt of 13th July 1931, which resulted
into the massacre of 22 innocent Kashmiris. He said the flame of struggle
ignited by 22 Kashmiri youth against the Dogra rulers is still burning with the
blood of Kashmiris and they won’t let it extinguish until they achieve their
right to self-determination.
He said
India is using all kinds of suppression against the freedom-loving people of
Kashmir to crush their political struggle but would never succeed as the morale
of Kashmiris is high. He said the supreme sacrifices rendered by the Kashmiri
people in their struggle for right to self-determination would not go waste.
Bashir Ahmed Mir, Shah Hussain, Maulana Saber Hussain, Sharafat Ali Khatana,
Maqsood Ahmed Dar, Advocate Shabbir Hussain, Manzoor Ahmed Deva and Chaudhry
Rashid also spoke on the occasion.
