SRINAGAR: Kashmiri cleric Mirwaiz Umar Farooq on Friday appealed for the unconditional release of thousands of Kashmiri political prisoners and youth languishing in different jails across the country for a long time, as a gesture of goodwill on the holy month of Ramzan.
While addressing a gathering at the historic Jamia Masjid, the Mirwaiz appealed to all sects and organisations — religious, social, and political — to rise above personal and sectarian interests and ensure unity and brotherhood among the people to preserve and protect J&K’s collective identity. The best way to ensure collectivism is by following basic human, moral, and religious principles and values, he said, warning that infighting will only lead to destruction.
“Youth are the future of Kashmir. Pursuance of education and awareness will bring out their inner capabilities and consciousness so they can help shape a just and prosperous community,” the Mirwaiz said.
