Oppression will fail to silence Kashmir’s call for self-determination: Mushaal Mullick says

ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 24th Feb, 2026) Chairperson of the Peace and Culture Organization, Mushaal Hussein Mullick, spouse of incarcerated Hurriyat leader Muhammad Yasin Malik, declared that the blood and sacrifices of Kashmiris will fuel their struggle rather than weaken it and stressed that India’s use of force and oppression will never succeed in silencing the collective voice demanding self-determination.

While speaking to a local news channel, Mushaal Hussein Mullick said that Kashmir’s demand for self-determination cannot be silenced, declaring that no force or oppression can suppress the collective will of the Kashmiri people.

She stated that decades of sacrifices have only strengthened their resolve and reinforced their commitment to achieving their fundamental rights.

The Chairperson of the Peace and Culture Organization emphasized that continued repression and coercive measures have failed to break the spirit of Kashmiris.

She maintained that every attempt to stifle their voices has instead amplified their call for justice and drawn greater international attention to their cause.

She further reiterated that the sacrifices rendered by the people of Kashmir will not go in vain, asserting that the struggle for self-determination is rooted in resilience, courage, and an unwavering belief in freedom.

Lasting peace in the region can only be achieved by acknowledging and respecting the legitimate aspirations of the Kashmiri people, she added.

Mushaal Hussein Mullick claimed that India is perpetuating fear and repression in Kashmir through the killing of young civilians, arguing that such actions are intensifying resentment rather than restoring calm.

She accused India of pursuing policies that destabilize Pakistan and destabilize the wider region. Citing the continued detention of Hurriyat leader Muhammad Yasin Malik and other in Jails, she warned that any harm to them could spark heightened tensions and significantly escalate the already fragile security situation.
