Srinagar: The Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) has expressed its deep concern over the forcible eviction of Kashmiri women staying on visa in Indian Occupied Kashmir (IOK).

In a statement issued from party's central information office, the JKLF chief spokesman Muhammad Rafiq Dar while condemning this act of forcible eviction by Indian authorities said that the majority of these women, the Sate Subjects from the other side of ceasefire line married to local men, are staying in Kashmir for near about last four decades.

He further informed that their applications for local permanent residence are under process with the local administration. Therefore, their forcible eviction has no legal and moral justification, the statement read.

The spokesman termed this forcible separation of families as tragic and inhuman. He lamented over the distressful and heartbreaking scenes emanating from the Atari boarder while many mothers were witnessed crossing over to other side leaving their children and husbands behind with uncertainty in their re-union.

The aftermath of Pahalgam attach has brought the two nuclear powers at the brink of war and the jingoistic attitude, especially of Indian media, has further aggravated the situation, the spokesman added.

The spokesman said that the Kashmiri people from across the entire State have in unequivocal terms condemned the attack at Pahalgam that took the lives of 27 innocent tourists including a local young man and injured many.

The JKLF spokesman appealed international community to intervene and help re-union of these divided families who are being victimised for their no fault.

The JKLF spokesman urged both India and Pakistan to stop war mongering as it will have to pay high cost to all of us. He further appealed the influential world powers to help resolve the Kashmir issue in accordance with the aspirations of the local people to de-escalate the situation.
