We all will have to keep away from these Indian elections JKLF Speakers in South Kashmir
Srinagar: The main aim and objective of elections organized by India and held under Indian constitution is to prolong the slavery of Kashmiris, to legislate new tyrannical and oppressive laws against people of Jammu Kashmir and to subject Kashmiris to torture and repression .therefore participation in these election on any name and pretext cannot be termed but as enmity with Kashmir. This was stated by various leaders and activists of JKLF while speaking to many congregations throughout the south Kashmir today. Prior to these programs, police arrested many JKLF leaders in a nocturnal raid at JKLF office Bohiri Kadal (Shuhada Manzil Maqbool Centre). Among those arrested are JKLF zonal assistant general secretary Sheikh Abdul Gaffer, District president Baramullah Abdul Rashid Magloo, district president Kupwara Mohammad Rafiq War, District president Bandipora Syed Nisar Jeelani and office bearer Ghulam Qadir Khan.
JKLF Public awareness program to ask people to keep away from Indian elections started from south Kashmir today and Many JKLF leaders and activists addressed people at many places throughout the south Kashmir. The places visited by JKLF leaders include Jamia KMD Islambad, central Jamia Pulwama, Jamia Khnbal , Jamai Rajpora, Jamia Muran Pulwama ,Jamia Gudroo Pulwama, Central Jamia Kulgam, Jamia Kaimoh Kulgam, Jamia Athoora Shupian, Jamia Newah Pulwama, Jamai Pir Pora Pulwama, Jamia Dooru Shahabad Islamabad, Jamai Watoo Shupian, Jamia Khudwani Kulgam, Jamia Matan Adda Islambad etc. In their addresses JKLF leaders said that elections held under Indian constitution and under the auspicious of India, though are contested under the  slogans of prosperity, roads, water, electricity and eradication of other day to day problems etc ,but have always been used to malign, undermine and weaken the freedom struggle of Kashmiris. Indian and its puppets in Jammu Kashmir have always tried to befool the international community and attached these elections with the determination of future of people of Jammu Kashmir. Speakers said that these elections, assemblies, and parliaments have given Kashmiris nothing but despair, distress and disaster. These elections gave us black Laws like PSA, AFSPA, TADA, POTA etc. These produced the oppression of Jagmohan, task force, catch and kill, operation tiger, custodial killings and disappearances, unmarked graves and unnamed graveyards. These gave us the hangings of Saheed Baba I Qoum Mohammad Maqbool Butt and Shaheed Afzal Guru. Speakers said that these elections, assembly and parliament has always work to snatch every symbol of freedom of Kashmiris  and the members elected to these assemblies and parliaments are only deputed to safeguard the interests of India and conceal the crimes of its forces and agencies.
Speakers said that pro- India politicians and parties here have always asked for our votes in the name of electricity, water, jobs and roads etc but have always used this for snatching our freedom, strengthening the clutches of tyranny and oppression on the people of Jammu Kashmir and for legislating and Enactment of black laws here. Therefore taking part in these elections in any name cannot be termed but as worst enmity with Kashmir and Kashmiris.
Speakers said that although The people who contest these elections ask us to vote in the name of electricity, water, employments and other day to day needs of the life but in fact after the elections are over these very people and their masters in Delhi project the elections and votes as a vote for india and use this to malign and undermine the freedom movement for which our hundreds and thousands have sacrificed their lives till date. Speakers appealed the people of Jammu Kashmir to show resilience and wisdom and not to get deceived by the slogans of electricity, water, employments, Tehsils and Nayabats etc. we will have to defeat the ill-designs of enemies to divide this nation into sects, casts, creeds, families ,localities etc  and as a living nation will have to safeguard the sacrifices rendered by us and our beloved martyrs and for that we all will have to keep away from these Indian elections and voting’s, added speakers. Meanwhile today in addition to these public meetings pamphlets about the facts of these elections, its bad repercussions etc were distributed throughout various places in south Kashmir.
