Imtiaz Aslam rejects funding allegations against JKJAAC, announces legal action

Kotli — Imtiaz Aslam Chaudhry, core member of the Jammu Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee (JKJAAC), has strongly rejected recent allegations of foreign funding made by Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leaders, calling them “baseless and defamatory.”

Speaking to local media, Aslam said the accusations, particularly from senior PPP leader Chaudhry Muhammad Yasin, were intended to discredit the people’s movement. “These are false and malicious claims. If Chaudhry Yasin fails to provide evidence, we are ready to face him in court,” he declared, confirming that legal experts had already been consulted for a defamation lawsuit.

Aslam stressed that the recent reduction in flour and electricity prices was the direct outcome of the Committee’s peaceful struggle. “Our movement has always followed constitutional and democratic means through peaceful protests and negotiations. We are not against any political party; we are fighting for the fundamental rights of the people,” he said.

He criticized PPP leadership for indulging in “baseless propaganda” instead of addressing the real issues faced by the public. According to him, the people of Jammu and Kashmir are now politically aware and will not be misled by false narratives.

Appreciating political workers and citizens who condemned Yasin’s statement and expressed solidarity with the JKJAAC, Aslam warned the ruling elite to “change their course” or face the strength of public awareness.

He further appealed to the people across the region to fully prepare for the indefinite lockdown on September 29, called by the Committee as part of its ongoing campaign against 78 years of exploitation.
