Hurriyat ka naya business, Do Ke Saath, Do Free!
Now separatists fuel shortage of essentials in Kashmir

Early Times Report
JAMMU, Feb 13: Even as Kashmir has allegedly been facing shortage of essentials in the wake of frequent closure of the Srinagar-Jammu national highway due to bad weather, the frequent strike calls by the separatists have only compounded the public woes.
As if the previous two days of hartals on February 9 and 11 were not enough, the so called Joint Resistance Leadership gave two more days of hartal within a week drawing flak from people.
The JRL called for the hartal when the trucks stranded on the highway were supposed to reach Srinagar markets. The hartal has drawn flak from traders and common people.
The JRL called for shutdown on February 13 and 14 to "protest and resist the late announcement and ambiguity over the dates of hearing on 35-A."
The hartal drew criticism on social media with the people saying that Hurrriyat was adding to miseries of the people of Kashmir by keeping markets closed for their personal interests.
A businessman said even enemies would take mercy in natural calamities but that the separatists were hell bent to destroy Kashmir through politics of hartal.
"There was a need to keep markets open so that hundreds of trucks which reached Kashmir could make it consumers but this hartal has added to our woes," the businessman said on the condition of anonymity.
Sources said the JRL leadership had instructions from their Pakistani handlers to give more hartals as a part of their planning to keep the Kashmir pot on the boil.
Sources said till daytime the Hurriyat leaders had no plan of giving any hartal call but that their Pakistani handlers directed them to do the same.
Sources said the Pakistan asked them to "show their performance on the ground or that new leaders would be given patronage" by the enemy country.
Sources said the Hurriyat leaders had passed a message to business community and so called civil society to support the strike call.
It was reliably learnt that the Pakistan has yet again taken full control over the JRL.
Sources said all the three main leaders Syed Ali Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Muhammad Yasin Mailk have been individually asked to be united on this front to dance at their tunes.
