Mirwaiz Under House Arrest: India’s Desperate Attempt to Suppress Kashmir’s Struggle

July 12, 2025 Off By Sharp Media

A Shameless Suppression of Religious Freedom

In the latest shocking move by the New Delhi-controlled administration in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, the senior leader of All Parties Hurriyat Conference, has been placed under house arrest. The authorities fear his Friday sermon at Jamia Masjid, where he intended to honor the martyrs of July 13, 1931. This is not just a restriction; it is a calculated act of silencing a voice that speaks the truth.

Fear of Martyrs’ Memory

Mirwaiz was to pay tribute to the martyrs whose sacrifices for Kashmir’s freedom cannot be forgotten. The Indian authorities fear that Mirwaiz’s tribute would ignite the fire of resistance. The occupation forces are terrified of the powerful memory of Kashmir’s martyrs, as it remains etched in the collective conscience of the people. Mirwaiz’s words, they know, would remind the people that their struggle for justice and self-determination is alive.

Sacrifices That Cannot Be Erased

Mirwaiz Umar Farooq condemned the act, making it clear that the sacrifices of all Kashmiri martyrs, from 1931 to today, are immortalized in every Kashmiri heart. He stated that no nation could ever forget its martyrs. The occupation’s restrictions cannot erase their legacy. The Indian government cannot erase the spirit of resistance embedded in the soul of Kashmir.

Kashmir’s Struggle for Justice Cannot Be Silenced

Despite this repression, Mirwaiz vowed to lead a march to the shrine of Naqshband Sahib on July 13. The grand tribute will be paid to the martyrs, asserting that the people of Kashmir will not forget their heroes. The Indian state may try to suppress the voice of resistance, but Kashmiris will continue to honor the martyrs’ sacrifices. The movement for freedom is unstoppable.

The World Must Hear Kashmir’s Cry

This incident is another alarming reminder of the brutality and oppression under Indian occupation. The Indian state continues to deny Kashmiris their basic rights, including freedom of speech and religion. The world cannot remain silent while Kashmiris endure these atrocities. It is time for the international community to stand in solidarity with Kashmir and demand an end to this illegal occupation.

Conclusion: The Fight for Freedom Continues

Kashmir’s struggle for freedom and justice cannot be silenced. Mirwaiz Umar Farooq’s house arrest is merely a temporary setback, and the spirit of resistance will only grow stronger. The people of Kashmir will continue their fight for self-determination, and their martyrs will never be forgotten. No amount of repression can extinguish the fire of Kashmir’s struggle for freedom.
