An important meeting of Awami Action Committee ( AAC) leaders, activists and workers was held at the party headquarters Mirwaiz Manzil, Rajouri Kadal. The meeting was presided over by AAC patron Mirwaiz Umar Farooq who was released from the house detention Saturday morning.

A statement issued to GNS said the meeting finalized the preparations for the 28th martyrdom anniversaries of AAC founder and the religious and political leader late Mirwaiz Moulana Muhammad Farooq(RA) and the martyrs of Hawal massacre of May 21, 1990.

“On the occasion, rich tributes were paid to Shaheed-e-Milat Mirwaiz Molvi Farooq and Shaheed-e-Hurriyat Khawja Abdul Gani Lone, martyrs of  Hawal massacre and all the martyrs of Kashmir,” the statement said. 

Speaking on the occasion, AAC patron and APHC chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq said, “While we are paying tributes to our great martyrs, the fact is that even today Kashmiris especially our youth continue to sacrifice their precious lives and these collective sacrifices made by people and leadership are our great asset which will be written in golden words in the history of our immense sacrifices.”

Mirwaiz said it's the responsibility of the nation to protect and safeguard these sacrifices and to remain steadfast towards the final goal. He stressed that the Kashmir issue is basically a humanitarian and political issue and it can't be resolved by using military power. In an apparent reference to New Delhi, “The extreme repressive measures employed by them would not turn away people from demanding their fundamental right to decide their destiny,” he said.

Mirwaiz said that New Delhi must acknowledge the aspirations of people and shun this approach against peace-loving Kashmiris and start a meaningful process for the resolution of the dispute. He said Delhi can't deny the reality of Kashmir forever and the sooner it accepts the need for resolving Kashmir,  the sooner peace would prevail in the sub-continent.

Mirwaiz urged upon the party activists to follow the mission of the martyrs and make it a way of life.

Announcing the program for martyrs week, Mirwaiz said:

May 16 (Wednesday) : Recitation of Quran and Qirat competition to be organized by Anjuman-Auqaf Jamia Masjid.

May 17 (Thursday):  A seminar to be held at APHC headquarters at Rajbagh, Srinagar.

A congregational gathering to pay tributes to martyrs will be held at martyrs’ graveyard Eidgah where JRL will address the people, offer special Fateh prayers and take a pledge to take the mission of martyrs towards its accomplishment.
