| We don't want repeat of 2010 like situation: Mehbooba | | PDP criticizes forces for youth killing | | Srinagar, July 19: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has strongly condemned the killing of a youth identified as Suhail Ahmad Lone reportedly in security forces' firing in Khodwani, Qoimoh in Kulgam district late Saturday. In a statement, the party president, Mehbooba Mufti, expressed her condolences with the bereaved family and prayed for the everlasting peace of the deceased.
Advising restraint she said the pain and outrage against Gaza atrocities is understandable and there should be a global concern about such brazen acts of aggression against unarmed civilians. Mehbooba said she and her party has tried to channelize the sentiments of the people on Gaza issue in the highest democratic forum of the country and we will continue to urge the Government of India to use its moral and diplomatic influence in stopping the assault on Gaza.
Mehbooba said the empathy for Palestinians has to be respected wherever it is expressed peacefully and given due space.
She said the government must also deal the situation with care, caution and consideration so as to prevent an escalation which could lead to an unfortunate situation like the one that consumed 120 precious lives in 2010.
"We would never want the society to get entrapped once again in similar circle of avoidable violence," Mehbooba said. |
