The meeting strongly condemned the ongoing atrocities and human rights violations by Indian forces in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Kashmir Media Service reported.
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani addressing the meeting said that the Modi-led fascist Indian government had put the regional peace at stake. He said that the Modi government was ignoring the concerns of the international community and was changing the demography of the territory to make the UN resolutions ineffective.
He said that Kashmiri people had great devotion to their youth who had sacrificed their lives for a great cause and India could not suppress their spirit of freedom through cheap tactics.
Other Hurriyat leaders said that India was committing genocide of youth in the occupied territory under a conspiracy.
They added that it was difficult to fill the gap created by the death of the veteran Hurriyat Leader, Syed Ali Gilani but all possible efforts would be made to fulfill the mission of their Quaid.
The leaders said that sacrifices of the Kashmiris had centre-stated the Kashmir dispute at international level and urged the United Nations and world human rights organizations to take notice of the genocide of Kashmiri youth and other human rights violations in the territory.
Meanwhile, Chairman of Pasban-e-Hurriyat, Uzair Ahmad Ghazali in a statement issued in Muzaffarabad said, Narendra Modi’s address to the UN General Assembly is an insult to sane conscience.

Criticizing the Indian Prime Minister, he said, Modi is the killer of Kashmiri youth, violator of the basic human rights and has converted Jammu and Kashmir into world’s largest military jail, “a person with such profile if addresses the UNGA is itself an insult to humanity” he said.
