MIRPUR ( AJK): May 11: Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF – Yasin Malik) has very warmly welcomed the ceasefire announcement by India and Pakistan brokered by the US after the four days long dreadful air strikes and missile attacks between the two arch rivals.
JKLF chief spokesman, Muhammad Rafiq Dar, in a statement issued from the party’s central information office on Sunday termed the role played by US President Mr. Donal Trump as commendable. He said that the act has not only averted the imminent threat of losing precious lives and properties of millions of people living in India, Pakistan and Jammu Kashmir but has also provided them a fresh chance to realize the necessity of the just resolution of conflicts.
Rafiq Dar, according to the statement, appreciated President Trump for expressing his resolve to work for a Kashmir solution. As a powerful and influential world leader President Trump can reach a solution while taking all the stakeholders including Kashmiri people into confidence, he said.
The spokesman reminded President Trump that the Kashmir issue concerns more to its local population. Therefore, as a main stakeholder and principal party to the issue their active involvement in any political or dialogue process that leads to its resolution is a must, he emphasized. The Kashmir issue is not a territorial dispute between India and Pakistan to be resolved by them only but as a matter of right to self-determination of a nation Kashmiri people need to be taken into account, the statement read.
The JKLF spokesman has expressed his deep concern over the reported continued exchange of fire and exchange of mortar shells across the ceasefire line after reported violation of the ceasefire (CFL) even after the announcement of ceasefire Saturday evening by India. He demanded the immediate extension of ceasefire on CFL as it has potential in causing heavy damages to the lives and properties of local vulnerable populations residing close to it, according to the statement.
