Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) chairman Mohammad Yasin Malik Wednesday said that late Professor Abdul Ahad Wani was a versatile personality who through his exemplary wisdom and unparallel sacrifices achieved a high place in the history of Jammu Kashmir.
“People like him add to the glory of nations and Shaheed Professor was also a glory for the nation of Kashmir,” Malik said while speaking in a condolence meeting held to remember Wani on his 21st death anniversary on Wednesday.
“It is worth to mention that JKLF in past used to organize a seminar on this day but due to so called elections whole leadership was in jails and thus program of seminar could not be held. Instead of seminar a grand condolence meeting chaired by Malik was held today,” he said.
Speaking on the occasion Malik said that intellectuals and thinkers like Prof Wani are like a jewel in the crown of nations and whenever history of Kashmir will be written his name will be remembered with great honor and dignity.
“Shaheed Wani led Kashmiri nation on legal, political, social and diplomatic fronts. On diplomatic front he led this nation before the international community and surprised everyone with his wisdom, vision and intellect,” he said.
The JKLF chairman said that best way to remember the sacrifices of martyrs and pay tributes to them is to keep striving for sacred cause for which these martyrs laid down their lives.
“As a living nation, we will have to stand firm in hard circumstances and keep on resisting the enemies of freedom with valor and courage,” he said.
After the program a congregational prayer meeting was held for professor Wani and other martyrs of Kashmir. “Participants of the meeting recited Quran and prayed for the freedom of Jammu Kashmir and martyrs,” the spokesperson said.
