SRINAGAR: The All Parties Hurriyet Conference has said that India is emerging as a fascist and imperialist state and its claim of being the largest democracy in the world stands exposed.
An APHC spokesman in a statement issued in Srinagar, while reacting to the statement of Indian Minister Venkaiah Naidu wherein he said that Azadi slogans would invite action under sedition law, termed the assertion as manifestation of New Delhi’s frustration.
The APHC said, “Indian rulers don’t believe in democratic setup, instead they are hell-bent on muzzling the right to expression by enacting black laws and through their state power. This type of lawlessness is never justified in a civilised society,” he added.
He said more and more people are supporting our movement and the intellectual class in India now understands the aspirations of the people of Kashmir. “The new tendency in reputed educational institutions like Ramjas College and Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) is encouraging as they are displaying their resentment against Delhi for its unrealistic Kashmir policy,” the statement said.
