Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party (JKAP) that was formed nearly six months after the abrogation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir and division of the erstwhile state into two Union territories on 5th of August 2019 has been accused of lobbying with the central government of India with regard to the decision against the aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. A senior leader of the party Ghulam Hassan Mir in an exclusive interview with The Kashmir Walla’s Pirzada Shakir responds to the accusations and gives details about the need for the formation of JKAP just after the 5 August decision when most of the politicians of Jammu and Kashmir were either languishing in makeshift jails or under house detention.
The Kashmir Walla needs you, urgently. Only you can do it.
We have always come to you for help: The Kashmir Walla is battling at multiple fronts — and if you don’t act now, it would be too late. 2020 was a year like no other and we walked into it already battered. The freedom of the press in Kashmir was touching new lows as the entire population was gradually coming out of one of the longest communication blackouts in the world.
We are not a big organization. A few thousand rupees from each one of you would make a huge difference.
The Kashmir Walla plans to extensively and honestly cover — break, report, and analyze — everything that matters to you. You can help us.
