Srinagar, November 30, 2021 (PPI-OT):In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the Hurriyat forum led by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has expressed serious concern over the allotment of agricultural land for construction of camps and accommodations for Indian paramilitary Central Reserve Police Force in Kakapora area of Pulwama district.
The forum in a statement issued in Srinagar, today, said that authorities were snatching a large tract of agricultural land from locals in Woukho village of Kakapora for setting up camps and accommodations for CRPF soldiers and their families. “This has put their livelihood in great peril which the locals are resenting.”
The Hurriyat forum said that thousands of acres of land in Kashmir, the world’s most militarised zone, are already in military possession, which has dispossessed the people of Kashmir of the use of their natural resource. “By taking over peoples’ land and snatching their livelihood, through authoritarian orders, those in power are only adding to peoples woes, and implementing the agenda of demographic change.” The statement added.
