Hurriyat (M) chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq on Thursday asked the government of Jammu and Kashmir to withdraw the order of closing down the Kashmir highway for two days in a week.

“Another anti-people dictatorial move of the government to close the national highway for two days which will cause great distress to people. Government should withdraw this diktat and stop punishing people of Kashmir,” Mirwaiz said in a tweet.

Jammu and Kashmir government Wednesday announced that there shall be no movement of civilian traffic on the highway from Udhampur in Jammu till Baramulla in north Kashmir for two days every week to facilitate movement of forces for the upcoming parliamentary elections.

The closure of the highway has drawn severe criticism for all sections of the society.
