Srinagar: Chairman of Jammu Kashmir liberation front (JKLF) Muhammad Yasin Malik Saturday ridiculed the statement made by former chief minister Dr Farooq Abdullah against Independent Kashmir, saying that Farooq has always played non-serious and selfish politics.

As per the statement issued here, Malik said that Kashmiris never take his words and personality seriously.

Terming the statement of Farooq Abdullah as ‘absurd and non-serious’, Malik said that to remain in news Farooq Abdullah always issues controversial statements like these but people of Jammu Kashmir are fully aware of his irresponsible character, his non-seriousness and the level to which he can stoop down for his selfish gains and because of these facts no one takes his statements seriously.

JKLF chairman said that in fact Farooq Abdullah and his late Father has been doing politics in the name of freedom of Kashmir for a long time and it was he who in 1974 from Lal Chowk Srinagar floated the slogan of “Choen Daish Mouen Daish Kashur Daish Kashur Daish” (Your nation my nation is Kashmiri nation Kashmiri nation) and even participated in pro-freedom rallies in Mirpur Azad Kashmir, But afterwards these very people for their lust of power and for serving their own selfish benefits shunned the path of freedom, sacrificed the interests of Kashmiris and till date are enjoying the fruits of petty power and authority.

Rejecting the idea of autonomy for Jammu Kashmir, Malik said that Kashmiris have not sacrificed thousands of lives for a fragile, absurd and  ridiculous autonomy under which a prime minster of time who luckily was Farooq Abdullah sahibs own father was handcuffed by an ordinary police man and thrown into jail for 11 long years.

Advising Farooq Abdullah to shun his ‘political joker’ like approach and assume some seriousness, Malik said that resistance against illegal Indian occupation will continue till the achievement of the desired goal.
