Srinagar, May 22 (KNO): Awami Action Committee (AAC) on Saturday stated that some people are trying to exploit the martyrdom of the slain leaders on May 21, 1990.
The statement issued to the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO) said that some people are trying to misinterpret events with mischievous intent to promote a certain narrative through manipulation and half truths in order to sow discord and create confusion in the minds of the people of Kashmir.
AAC expressed concern over the write ups appearing in some media platforms on the 31st anniversary of Mirwaiz Molvi Muhammad Farooq on May 21.
The statement said that “there is a concerted attempt by certain powerful quarters who control all modes of communication to exploit the Shaheed leaders Shahadat - a very tragic and painful incident in Kashmir’s recent history.”
“It is a disturbing trend to misinterpret events with mischievous intent to promote a certain narrative through manipulation and half truths in order to sow discord and create confusion in the minds of the people of Kashmir who are reeling under the impact of a protracted conflict, recent events and the tragic affects of corona virus.”
AAC asked people to be wary of these efforts and stay alert to these tactics and strategies meant to create diversion, and further demoralize people going through difficult times.
AAC said that under the leadership of its chairman, incarcerated Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, it will continue to pursue peacefully and with patience its efforts for the realisation of the will and aspirations of the people of J&K in resolution of the Kashmir conflict as was the dream of our quaid, Shaheed-e- Millat Mirwaiz Molvi Mohammed Farooq—(KNO)
