Srinagar, May 1, CNS: Jammu Kashmir Peoples Movement leader and JNU student activist Shehla Rashid Shora wished good health to Hurriyat (G) Supreme and JRL leader, Syed Ali Geelani.
She said that Geelani has sacrificed a lot for the people of Jammu & Kashmir, especially with regard to safeguarding the special status of the state.
She said that, “there have been several attempts to weaken the special status of the state, and usurp the land rights and other safeguards available to the state subjects of Jammu and Kashmir.
“It is leaders like Geelani sahab who have remained vigilant and led the people of the state under such circumstances. We pray for his long life and recognize his contributions.”
She added that, “while we have fundamental differences as parties, one cannot deny the sacrifices and contributions made by the veteran leader. If it weren’t for the resistance movement led by Geelani Sahab and others, our generation would not have been aware of our rights.”
