Yasin Malik is the Chairman of the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front. He is a symbol of resistance and a democratic voice for the Kashmiris.

He welcomed a non violent struggle in exchange for the opportunity granted to him, by the Indian Government, to be allowed to participate in the political realms of seeking a resolution for the Kashmir conflict.

He spoke at the India Today Conclave  in March 2008 under the title of 'Leadership for the 21st Century" in New Delhi. He showed a complete understanding of the Kashmir conflict and the issues that plague peace.

However on the 17th March 2019 he was booked under PSA and sent to Tihar jail in New Delhi. He still resides there and is not being given suitable representation. 

He is in poor health suffering from chronic heart condition, kidney stones and face paralysis. This is of grave concern, furthermore at such times during the corona virua crisis his life is even more seriously at risk.

He has a wife and a seven year old daughter who are being deprived of a husband and father. The Kashmiris are being deprived of a democratic voice that seeks resolutions to a conflict that has lasted more than 70 years.

We are mindful that Yasin Malik is just one political prisoner so would urge for the release of all political prisoners suffering cruelty under the Modi brutal BJP government.

We are demanding that the Indian Government release Yasin Malik and the United Nations act to see justice and fairness done as a matter of human rights. No human being should have to suffer in this way.
