Hyderabad, Aug 6: Hundreds of students from Students Federation of India (SFI) led by Kashmiri students and academics staged a protest against the ongoing killings in the Kashmir Valley here on Thursday evening.
Students carrying placards which read “stop the cycle of oppression in Kashmir, India doing Aushwitz in Kashmir, stop genocide of Kashmiris, revoke Armed Forces Special Powers Act,” took out a mass rally from the department of Social Sciences of Hyderabad Central University (HCU) to the main market.
Volunteers of SFI carried banners and flags which in Telgu language read: “Independence, democracy and justice.”
Later students from Osmania University, English and Foreign Languages University joined the rally.
The rally culminated at the main market and lit candles in memory of Kashmiris who have been killed during the recent unrest across the Valley. They expressed solidarity with the bereaved families by maintaining two minutes’ silence.
Speaking on the occasion a scholar from Manipur said, “There is one thing in common between North-East and Kashmir i.e. residents of both these places are facing torture.”
