Hizb asks government employees to boycott polls

The pro-Pakistan Hizbul Mujahideen on Wednesday appealed to the government employees and transporters of Jammu and Kashmir to boycott the assembly election in the state.

"We appeal to the employees and transporters to remain away from the election drama and not extend cooperation to the pro-India administration in this regard," the Hizb 'commander-in-chief' for Kashmir, Saif-ul-Islam, said in a statement.

He also welcomed the Punjab government employees' refusal to perform election duties in Jammu and Kashmir.

"Participation in the elections is an act of betrayal with the 90,000 martyrs and no Kashmiri can commit such a mistake," he said.
