| Kashmir finally free from clutches of separatism? | | For the first time, Pak stooges hide behind spacious bungalows; issue no strike call on Oct 27 | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Oct 27: What could reflect the failing separatist politics in Kashmir was the silence adopted by the Pak stooges on Tuesday- October-27 when till now they would issue strike calls to appease their Pakistani masters.
This was for the first time in so many years when no such hartal call was issued by any of the separatist factions in Kashmir.
The separatists with the help of militant groups till last year since the onset of militancy were issuing strike calls on October 27. October 27 marks the day when in 1947 Indian Army marched into Kashmir to thwart the entry of Pakistani tribesmen in Kashmir.
As for the first time, Accession Day on October 26 was celebrated with a gazetted holiday in Kashmir, there was interestingly no strike call issued by the separatists on October 27- something that used to be a regular practice of these groups. Not even a single statement was issued by any of the separatist leaders about October 27 or asking people to observe a strike on this day. This is the reason that people fearlessly travelled on roads and vehicles were plying normally.
Last year ahead of the abrogation of Article 370, when Union Home Minister Amit Shah visited Valley, the separatists including Geelani for the first time since the eruption of militancy in 1990, issued no strike call on the Home Minister’s visit. Post Abrogation of 370, separatists have issued no strike or chalo calls.
It was in June 2018 when in a statement, the separatists jointly termed Kashmiris as hospitable and have even went ahead with welcoming the Amarnath pilgrims to the Valley.
Many people at that point time were of the opinion that all this was done by them to hoodwink public opinion and distract the masses from the crimes they have committed against the people and how they have repeatedly developed fear psychosis in the minds of tourists against Kashmir, leaving the tourism sector dying on a deathbed. As NIA at that time had hinted at a massive crackdown against the Hurriyat once again, the separatists including Syed Ali Geelani- a known pro-Pakistani voice in Kashmir had begun welcoming the Amarnath pilgrims in June 29, 2018.
What he and other separatists forgot was their own venom they used to spit against the religious pilgrimage in the past. The statement that separatists issued about annual Amarnath Yatra was first of its kind since he formed his faction of Hurriyat conference. Geelani at that time termed the alleged “terror threat” to the upcoming Amarnath Yatra as a “calculated move aimed at maligning and discrediting the so-called political struggle of Kashmiris.”
Elaborating, he said that Amarnath yatra is being conducted for decades and the people here have treated the pilgrims with unique hospitality and received them as their guests.
On June 28, this year, the die- hard Pro Pakistani supporter who spearheaded several anti- India demonstrations in Kashmir shook everyone with his audio message in which he declared that he is quitting Hurriyat Conference which he himself had founded and headed it for about two decades.
The reasons that Geelani gave for leaving the amalgam were the lack of discipline within its ranks and silence maintained post abrogation of Article 370. |
