Protests in Pulwama by GDC students
Hurriyat (M) Chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has strongly condemned “ethnic cleansing” of Rohingya Muslims by Myanmar government and called for protests on Friday against the silence by the world against the execution.
“Strongly condemn ethnic cleansing of #Rohingya Muslims #Kashmir to observe #SolidarityDay with victims & protest world silence on Friday Sep8,” Mirwaiz tweeted today.
Meanwhile, students in Government Degree College Pulwama today afternoon took out a protest rally in the district headquarters in support of Rohingya Muslims.
The students took out a rally from the college campus and then poured on the College road upto main town.
Yesterday, a rally was taken out in Tral by civil society, led by former trade union leader Farooq Trali and condemned the execution of the Muslims and the silence by the world powers.
Meanwhile, Mutahida Majlis-e-Ulema (MMU) head Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and all other religious organisations of Kashmir including Jamaat-e-Islami, Jamiat-e-Ahlihadith, Anjuman-e-Share Shian, Islamic Study Circle, Itihaad-ul-Muslimeen, Darul Uloom Rahimiya Bandipora, Anjuman-e-Tableegul Islam, Anjuman-e-Himayatul Islam, Grand Mufti J&K, Muslim Personal Law Board, Darul Uloom Bilaliya, Darul Uloom Qasmiya, Anjuman-e-Nusratul Islam, Anjuman-e-Mazharil Haq Beerwah, Darul Uloom Noorul Islam Tral, Parvan-e-Vilayat J&K, Ahlibait Foundation, Anjuman-e-Ulema-e-Ahnaf and others, in a joint statement strongly condemned the persecution and ethic cleansing of the minority Muslim rohingya (Rakhine State) community and its people by the Mayanmarian Government.Young children, women and men, the old and the disabled are all being tortured, set on fire, raped, murdered and their houses burned. This torture is done only due to the Rohingyas faith particularly the religion practised (Islam) which the army and the government deem foreign to the state’s religion which is Buddhism. It has forced tens of thousands of Rohingya Muslim to flee their country and become refugees in neighboring states and suffer uncertainty and great hardships. Of late the killing and persecution by the Myanmar military has intensified forcing tens of thousands of Rohingya civilians to flee from their own land.
All these organisations questioned the criminal silence and inaction observed by the international community over the brutal killing and persecution of Rohingya Muslims at the hands of majority community of Myanmar ,stating that it extremely unjust that Rohingyas are being hounded and killed for their religious beliefs and there is little concern among the world community or the Muslims countries who are all watching this humanitarian tragedy unfold as mute spectators. It is highly regrettable they said.
They said the Organization of Islamic countries should break its criminal silence over such a serious issue confronting a large Muslim population of Rohingyas and play its role to stop their killings and persecution by the Myanmar state .
The statement urged the world community and international human rights bodies to do their duty and come to rescue of Rohingya Muslims by putting pressure on Myanmar Government and its military to stop the hate killings and persecution of Rohingya Muslims and let them live peacefully in their own land.
The statement said to show support and express solidarity with the Rohingya Muslims, people of Kashmir will observe coming Friday, September 8 as “Solidarity Day” with them.
On that day post Friday prayers peaceful protest will be held and a joint resolution framed by the MMU and others ,will be passed in all masjids and shrines of the Valley which will reflect Kashmiri people’s unanimous support to the Rohingyas.
The passed joint resolution will later be sent to human rights organizations across the globe, OIC and also to the United Nations and other forums for immediate end to massacre of Rohingya Muslims. (KNS)
