Muzafarrabad/ Islamabad ,July 13: The Hizbul Mujahideen on Tuesday hosted a number of speakers invited to commemorate Martyrs Day at a conference held here.
 The venue of the event was University Grounds in which PaK Prime Minister Raja Farooq Haider, senior leader of Hurriyat Conference (M) Mehmood Ahmed Sagar, Ghulam Muhammed Safi of Hurriyat (G), chairman United Jehad Council Syed Saluhuddin,  Abdul Rasheed Turabi, Sheikh Jameel-ur-Rehman, Usman Khan, Nasrullah Mansoor, Attique-ur-Rehman, Javeed Qasori, Shamshar Khan, Uzair Ghazali, Ghulam Nabi Nowsheri, Rafique Dar and others participated.
 This was for the first time that any PaK Prime Minister spoke in a programme with militant leadership.
 Stressing the need for a meaningful and result oriented dialogue on long-pending dispute of Kashmir, Haider said that Kashmir issue was basically an issue of right to self-determination of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
 “I assure you that my government is the representative of Kashmiri Mujahideen and there should be no doubt to anyone that this is the base camp of Kashmir liberation movement,” he said. 
 He warned it was becoming difficult for his government to control people in PaK from rushing to the support of their suffering brothers and sisters in other Kashmir.
 He was of the view that Pakistan should take up the human rights violation issue in the forthcoming foreign ministers meet and impress upon India to stop killing of innocent civilians in the valley.
 Speaking on the occasion, Syed Salahuddin said: “As Kashmiris’ struggle enters  into decisive phase, it was incumbent on the government of AJK and Pakistan to play a role more effectively to take the ongoing movement to its logical end.”
 “As a result of successful resistance movement, India has psychologically lost the battle against freedom fighters. Indian army general’s statements in this regard stand witness to this fact,” he added.
 He said there should be no talks with India until it stops killings of innocent Kashmiris.
 Commenting on ‘quit Kashmir’ campaign, he said that the valiant people of Kashmir have now launched the movement, which was of great significance.
 Flaying Indo-Pak dialogue, he said it was nothing but a futile and meaningless endeavor.
 Ameeri-Jammat, Abdul Rasheed Turabi while denouncing the killing of innocent civilians in Kashmir urged India to stop bloodshed of innocent Kashmiris.
 He also urged world body particularly the OIC to take concrete steps to mitigate sufferings of Kashmiri people.
 Meanwhile, a separate function was also held at Press Club Muzaffarabad by Liberation Cell and Hurriyat Conference (M).  Later, the participants marched towards UNMOGIP office and submitted a memorandum.
