APHC expresses surprise over Javid Mir’s quitting the forum

Srinagar: An All Parties Hurriyat Conference spokesperson in a statement has expressed surprise over Javaid Ahmad Mir’s quitting the Hurriyat Conference forum.

The spokesman said Mir neither informed the forum nor the chairman about his decision or the reasons behind it, but straightaway went to the media where he ambiguously mentioned about some so called “ideological differences” without elaborating what that meant.

The spokesman however added that Mir is free to do as he wills but the manner in which he has done it goes against the basis of organizational ethics and is in bad taste.

Javid Ahmad Mir on Tuesday formally quit the Hurriyat Conference-led by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq.

Chief of his faction of the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front, the 56-year-old pro-freedom leader said that he resigned over differences between him and Mirwaiz that had started in September last year.

“A week ago, I sent a written communication to my representative across the Line of Control (LoC) in Azad Kashmir. I have written that my faction of JKLF would no longer be part of Mirwaiz-led Hurriyat,” he said, quoted media reports.
