Islamabad Jammu and Kashmir Council for Human Rights (JKCHR) has strongly condemned the two day, Sunday and Wednesday ban imposed on civilian traffic every week until 31 May on the 270 km National High Way stretch from Udhampur in Jammu to Baramulla in North Kashmir by authorities in Indian occupied Kashmir, says a press release.JKCHR President Dr. Syed Nazir Gilani has said that 4am to 5pm halt imposed on civilian traffic until 31 May to facilitate the military traffic in fact is a declaration of war against the people of the disputed State of Jammu and Kashmir. It seems that Indian Government is using the Presidential Rule to induct more military personnel into Kashmir.JKCHR President has said that Indian army is subject to seven restraints in Kashmir and one of these is a restraint on their number. The current declared number of Indian occupation forces in Kashmir is likely to reach 780000 troops, unless there are other numbers surreptitiously inducted into the state.The statement has said that UN report in June 2018 has declared Kashmir as one of the highly militarised places in the world and due to this level of military presence people have lost the quality and purpose of life in Kashmir. The fresh two day ban is to further demoralise the people. It will impact the free movement of patients to hospitals, students going to schools, employees who would not be able to reach offices and the daily life would be further degraded to an ever low witnessed since 1846.Dr. Nazir Gilani has said that Indian Government wants to suffocate the people out of all patience. The ban will hit the tourist inflow and imports in the valley as well.JKCHR has expressed deep anguish on the added miseries being inflicted on the people of Valley and has cautioned the Government of the State, not to act as a conduit in enforcing these miseries on the people.
