Engineer Rashid
The interim bail of Engineer Rashid, MP from Baramulla, Jammu and Kashmir, ends today. Today he has to surrender before the Delhi jail administration, but before that he has given a big statement. Awami Ittehad Party President Engineer Rashid said that we are ready to make any sacrifice for our people. We have not committed any sin. I hope justice is done. Whether we are in jail or at home, we will always talk about Kashmir and Kashmiris. He will speak the truth. He will talk about peace. But we will not give up.
Engineer Rashid said that I will tell the people of Jammu and Kashmir that the truth is with us. We are not wrong. We want peace and development in Kashmir, but we must also get back the rights that were taken away from us, if they keep me in Tihar or somewhere else, we must not lose courage. Prison can’t break me.
Omar Saheb should keep all his promises – Engineer Rashid
At the same time, in Omar Abdullah’s meeting with Prime Minister Modi and Rajnath Singh, Engineer Rashid said that it is good for them to meet because they have work to do, but they will have to tell what they talked about when they met. We have not heard the issue of 370 anywhere, there has been no discussion on 35A, there has been no discussion on political issues, there is no discussion on statehood. Omar Saheb remains silent after meeting PM Modi and other leaders. Should I tell people what happened? We want Omar Saheb to keep all his promises. Where I feel good, I will support them.
He said that whenever Omar Saheb talks about the interests of the people, we are with him, but I feel that it is against the interests of Kashmiris, as it seems today. He doesn’t talk about political issues at all.
We have not committed any sin, we will fight and win.
Regarding me being burnt, Engineer Rashid said that the people of Kashmir are not afraid of me going to jail. We will fight and we will win. We have not committed many sins. Going to jail is not a problem for me. Yes, the call is that we will stay away from them (the people of Kashmir), but we must encourage them and be brave, the truth will prevail and the truth is on our side. We will talk about Kashmir and Kashmiris until our death.
The NIA Special Court sitting at Patiala House Court, Delhi, had granted interim bail to Engineer Rashid till October 2 to campaign in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly elections. However, Engineer Rashid’s provisional relief was extended twice. Today, October 28, he has to give up. The court will also hear the bail plea of Engineer Rashid today.
