SRINAGAR: Announcing that his party would receive Prime Minister Narendra Modi with black flags on his arrival in the state on Saturday, independent legislator Er Rasheed on Thursday appealed to the people across the state to observe strike on the day.
Addressing a press conference, Rasheed said the decision has been taken to make world community realize that India is not serious and sincere in resolving Kashmir issue.
“The strike call is for the largest interest of the people of the state,” said Rasheed.
He also accused the state police of turning “violence into an industry” and added that it will fail the Union government’s move of “ceasefire”.
