Hurriyat (M) chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq on Sunday said Kashmiri youth will continue to pick up arms as long as India uses force to address the dispute.
"As long as Govt of India address the political and humanitarian problem of Kashmir militarily and through force Kashmiri will continue to die or be forced to pick up arms for resistance," said Mirwaiz, in a tweet.
He said that the "onus for this and its repercussions is completely on them".
