No space for 'political' activity in Kashmir, says JKLF chief

May 27, 2015 16:46

Separatist JKLF chairman Yasin Malik today accused the state government of not giving any space to his organisation for "political" activities and gave a call for 'jail bharo' agitation from Friday to protest the "curbs".

"The government is not giving us any space (for political activities). We wanted to reach the villages of the Valley... But we were detained. There is no political space here," Malik said.

The JKLF leader said Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed wants to pass the six years of his term by keeping the separatists under house arrest and by not allowing any political space.
