Hurriyat forum condemns massive frisking, search operations in IOK

In Occupied Kashmir, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq-led Hurriyat forum has strongly denounced the massive frisking and search operations in run up to the Indian Republic Day which will be observed on Saturday. 

In a statement, the Hurriyat forum spokesman said this has resulted in endless hardships for the general public as the entire territory has been converted into a military fortress.

He said that Kashmir dispute is purely political in nature and the dispute can only be resolved by means of sustained dialogue with all the stakeholders.
