Protest is indigenous and spontaneous, Burhan Wani never went to Pak, says Yasin Malik

Srinagar : JKLF chairman Mohammad Yasin Malik, who was released after four-months of detention, claimed on Sunday the ongoing agitation in Kashmir was “indigenous” and “spontaneous” and would continue till people support it, reports PTI. “The situation in Kashmir after the killing of (Hizbul Mujahideen commander) Burhan Wani was a spontaneous reaction. It surprised India and the world but there was nothing surprising in it,” he told reporters here.

  “People of Kashmir had opted for peaceful means for resolution of the Kashmir issue during similar agitations in 2008, 2009 and 2010. But the military response of the government forced the likes of Burhan Wani to take up arms,” he said. “Burhan Wani and his associates never went to Pakistan but still joined militancy after they realised that the peaceful means for resolution of the Kashmir issue was being crushed by the government,” Malik said.

He claimed the burning of schools in Kashmir was a conspiracy to defame separatist leaders.
