JRL March to Lal Chowk first major tests for governments in Delhi, J&K: Mirwaiz

Srinagar: Hurriyat Conference (M) chairman Mirwaiz Molvi Umar Farooq on Friday said New Delhi and the incumbent government in Jammu & Kashmir beating drums on democracy will face the first major test on Saturday when joint resistance leadership has planned a peaceful rally at Lal Chowk.
“We have decided to convey our message to Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi in a very peaceful manner. We wouldn’t address any gathering but carry placards with messages for the PM Modi,” said the Mirwaiz while addressing Friday gathering at the historic Jamia Masjid.
He said it would be the first test for both Delhi and J&K government as they should allow us to hold this peaceful rally.
“Second test for these two governments will be on May 21 when we are planning a rally at Eidgah to take a pledge to take forward mission of the martyrs,” he said.
