Srinagar, May 13 (Inditop.com) Hardline Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Geelani Thursday advised Jammu and Kashmir government employees detailed for census operations to discharge their duties honestly to ensure that the state’s demography would be protected.
“Although the census is no alternative to self-determination, the local government employees must discharge their duties honestly to defeat the RSS-BJP designs to change the demography of Jammu and Kashmir,” Geelani told a media conference here at his uptown Hyderpora residence.
The hardline separatist leader said the decision to reserve eight percent seats in recruitments at district levels by the government “was a cultural threat to Kashmir”.
Geelani also expressed apprehensions that outsiders, including those from Bihar and other states, were being settled here to cause demographic changes here.
“It is a planned conspiracy to change the Muslim majority of the state,” Geelani maintained.
He has announced a peaceful protest programme for the current month asking people to hold post-Friday prayer protests across the Valley.
