Mehmood Ahmed Saghar was the first convener of the APHC-PAK chapter when the alliance was established in 1993.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news|url=http://indianexpress.com/article/explained/hurriyat-its-history-role-and-relevance/|title=Hurriyat: Its History, Role and Relevance|date=31 August 2015|work=The Indian Express|access-date=13 May 2017|language=en-US}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The alliance has historically been viewed positively by [[Pakistan]] as it contests the claim of the Indian government over the State of [[Jammu and Kashmir (union territory)|Jammu and Kashmir]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;kashmirherald1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.kashmirherald.com/profiles/hurriyat.html |title=All Party Hurriyat Conference (APHC) |publisher=Kashmirherald.com |access-date=10 March 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;autogenerated1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.satp.org/satporgtp/countries/india/states/jandk/terrorist_outfits/Hurriyat.htm |title=All Parties Hurriyat Conference |publisher=Satp.org |access-date=10 March 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://mea.gov.in/opinion/2002/05/23o05.htm|access-date=9 December 2007 |title=Sorry for the inconvenience }}{{dead link|date=June 2016|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Mirwaiz Umar Farooq]] is its chairman and in 2009 Mehmood Ahmed Saghar was unanimously elected as convener of APHC in Pakistan, and Ghulam Muhammad Safi was elected as its convener in Pakistan in January 2010.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.app.com.pk/en_/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;task=view&amp;amp;id=93925&amp;amp;Itemid=2 |title=Associated Press of Pakistan ( Pakistan&amp;#039;s Premier NEWS Agency ) – Kashmiri organisation felicitate Safi on his election |publisher=App.com.pk |access-date=10 March 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150402183437/http://www.app.com.pk/en_/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;task=view&amp;amp;id=93925&amp;amp;Itemid=2 |archive-date=2 April 2015 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
All Parties Hurriyat Conference was founded on 7 August 2004. On its first foundation day, more than 100,000 people gathered at Hyderpora, [[Srinagar]], showing solidarity and commitment to its objectives and goals. In August 2006, instead of a public convention, Tehreek-e-Hurriyat&amp;#039;s Central Council decided to organize a convention of members, candidates for membership and basic members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The basic objective before the founders of Tehreek-e-Hurriyat is to earn Allah&amp;#039;s pleasure through unambiguous service to the basic principles of Islam (Faith), Azadi (Freedom), and Itihad-e-milat (Fraternity).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;thjk.org&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |url=http://www.thjk.org/Introduction.php |title=Archived copy |access-date=13 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161108105027/http://thjk.org/Introduction.php |archive-date=8 November 2016 |url-status=dead }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Ideology and role==&lt;br /&gt;
According to the Hurriyat Conference, Jammu and Kashmir is a disputed territory and India&amp;#039;s control of it is not justified. It supports the Pakistani claim that [[Kashmir]] is the &amp;quot;unfinished agenda of Partition&amp;quot; and needs to be solved &amp;quot;as per the aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;satp.org&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.satp.org/satporgtp/countries/india/states/jandk/terrorist_outfits/Hurriyat.htm|title=All Parties Hurriyat Conference|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The APHC perceives itself to be the sole representative of the Kashmiri people.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;satp.org&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The organisation&amp;#039;s primary role has been to project an image of counter-insurgency operations in Jammu and Kashmir and to mobilise public opinion against Indian security forces. The alliance has consistently followed up local allegations of security force excesses, and in several documented cases, real allegations about human violation by Indian security forces. For instance, the Haigam firing incident of 16 February 2001, was an assault on a peaceful gathering whereas, but later claimed in news reports and official clarifications, the army contingent fired upon the mob only when they were blocked and prevented from moving.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;satp.org&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The APHC has also an observer&amp;#039;s status in the [[Organisation of Islamic Cooperation]] (OIC). OIC has invited [[Mirwaiz Umar Farooq]] for its June 2005 Foreign Ministers Conference in Yemen.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;satp.org&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/mirwaiz-gets-oic-invite-hurriyat/article1-1004477.aspx|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150402115705/http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/mirwaiz-gets-oic-invite-hurriyat/article1-1004477.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-date=2 April 2015|title=Mirwaiz gets OIC invite: Hurriyat|work=hindustantimes.com/|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Split==&lt;br /&gt;
There are currently two factions of the Hurriyat Conference led by [[Mirwaiz Umar Farooq]] and [[Syed Ali Shah Geelani]]. The Mirwaiz-led group, also referred to as the &amp;quot;moderate faction&amp;quot; along with non-Hurriyat leaders like [[Yasin Malik]] undertook, between 2–16 June 2005, the first formal visit of Kashmiri separatists to Pakistani Kashmir and subsequently, though unsanctioned by Indian authorities, to Pakistan.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;satp.org&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Internal fissures within the Hurriyat Conference culminated in a formal split on 7 September 2003,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.dailyo.in/politics/all-party-hurriyat-conference-jammu-and-kashmir-geelani/story/1/5594.html|title=Seven reasons why Hurriyat&amp;#039;s sun is setting in Kashmir}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; with at least 12 of its 26 constituents &amp;quot;removing&amp;quot; the then Chairman Maulana [[Mohammad Abbas Ansari]] &amp;quot;replacing&amp;quot; him with [[Masarat Alam]] as its interim chief. The dissenters reportedly met at the residence of hardliner and pro-Pakistan [[Jamaat-e-Islami]] (JeI) leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani and decided to depose Ansari and &amp;quot;suspend&amp;quot; the seven-member executive committee, the highest decision-making forum of the APHC. A five-member committee was formed to review the Hurriyat Constitution and suggest amendments to reverse what the dissenters perceived as &amp;quot;autocratic&amp;quot; decisions taken by the executive committee.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;satp.org&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since then, Geelani has formed his own faction of the Hurriyat called the Tehreek-e-Hurriyat Jammu and Kashmir. On 12 October 2004, he was elected unanimously as its chairman for a period of three years. A 25-member strong &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Majlis-e-Shoora&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (advisory council) to assist and advise the chairman was also announced on the same day. A statement released by the faction said 21 members were elected to the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;shoora&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and the chairman was authorised to nominate four members. It also said all 14 districts of the State were duly represented in the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;shoora,&amp;#039;&amp;#039; the highest decision-making body of the organisation. The Geelani reportedly has 16 constituents.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;satp.org&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Hurriyat Conference again split in 2014. The moderate Hurriyat Conference led by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq faced the split after four senior leaders raised a banner of revolt against the chairman and other members of the conglomerate.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ReferenceA&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-another-split-stares-at-moderate-hurriyat-1947196|title=Another split stares at moderate Hurriyat|work=dna|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Democratic Freedom Party president Shabir Ahmad Shah, National Front chairman Nayeem Ahmad Khan, Mahaz-e-Azadi chief Mohammad Azam Inqlabi and Islamic Political Party Mohommad Yousuf Naqash were up in arms against Mirwaiz after he dashed off a letter to the convener in [[Pakistan administered Kashmir]], Mohommad Yousuf Naseem, asking him not to entertain the leaders who have left the conglomerate on their own.&lt;br /&gt;
The leader Shabir Shah and his lieutenant Nayeem Khan along with Shia leader Agha Hassan joined Hurriyat Conference (G) led by Syed Ali Geelani.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ReferenceA&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Views on right to self-determination==&lt;br /&gt;
All JKLF factions support the right to self-determination as per [[UN Security Council Resolution 47]]. Hurriyat, led by [[Syed Ali Shah Geelani]], Shabir Shah, Nayeem Khan &amp;amp; Azam Inquilabi, demand the right to self-determination as per UN Security Council Resolution 47. &lt;br /&gt;
Members of the Executive Council of the original APHC were:&lt;br /&gt;
* Peoples Conference: [[Abdul Ghani Lone]]&lt;br /&gt;
* Jamat-e-Islami: [[Syed Ali Shah Geelani]]&lt;br /&gt;
* Awami Action Committee: [[Mirwaiz Umar Farooq]]&lt;br /&gt;
* People&amp;#039;s League: [[Sheikh Abdul Aziz|Mukhtar Ahmed Waza]]&lt;br /&gt;
* Itehad-ul-Muslimeen: [[Mohammad Abbas Ansari]]&lt;br /&gt;
* Muslim Conference: [[Abdul Ghani Bhat]]&lt;br /&gt;
* JKLF: [[Yasin Malik]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Criticism and controversies==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Family members living abroad===&lt;br /&gt;
Hurriyat leaders have been criticised for inciting young people to violent agitation while their family members live relatively well-off lives in other parts of India and abroad.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;The Tribune&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news|title=As Valley kids suffer, separatists&amp;#039; wards thrive in safe havens|url=http://www.tribuneindia.com/2010/20100919/main2.htm|access-date=19 April 2015|work=The Tribune|date=19 September 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; These include Syed Ali Shah Geelani and [[Asiya Andrabi]]. Syed Ali Shah Geelani&amp;#039;s eldest son Nayeem Geelani and his wife were medical practitioners in Rawalpindi, Pakistan until 2010. Geelani&amp;#039;s second son, Zahoor Geelani, along with his family lives in New Delhi. Izhaar Geelani, grandson of Geelani, is a crew member of a private airliner in India, while his daughter Farhat Geelani is a teacher in Jeddah; her husband is an engineer there.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;The Tribune&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Asiya Andrabi&amp;#039;s eldest son Muhammad bin Qasim, lives with her sister in Malaysia.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/sunday-times/deep-focus/For-the-first-family-of-militancy-a-troubled-road/articleshow/46571622.cms|title=For the first family of militancy, a troubled road – Times of India|access-date=6 June 2016}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Most of Asiya&amp;#039;s relatives have moved to Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, England, and Malaysia.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;thehindu.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/asiya-andrabis-3-nephews-arrested-in-pakistan-for-terror-links/article5114048.ece#|title=Asiya Andrabi&amp;#039;s 3 nephews arrested in Pakistan for &amp;quot;terror links&amp;quot;|date=11 September 2013|access-date=6 June 2016|via=The Hindu}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; One nephew, Zulqarnain, is a captain in the [[Pakistan Army]] and her second nephew, Irtiyaz-un-Nabi, is an aeronautical engineer and lecturer at the [[International Islamic University, Islamabad]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;thehindu.com&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Asiya Andrabi was criticized by Dr. Darakshan Andrabi the president of her party, the Socialistic Democratic Party of Jammu and Kashmir.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Indian Express&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news|title=&amp;quot;Omar has failed Kashmir&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Asiya is adopting duality&amp;quot;.|url=http://archive.indianexpress.com/news/-omar-has-failed-kashmir-/673825/|access-date=3 April 2015|work=The Indian Express|date=29 August 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Relations with Pakistani ISI===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Sheikh Mustafa Kamal]], a senior leader of the [[Jammu &amp;amp; Kashmir National Conference]] and son of [[Sheikh Abdullah]] criticised Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani for working on &amp;quot;dictations&amp;quot; given by Pakistan. He accused Geelani of being &amp;quot;a double agent&amp;quot; on &amp;quot;the payroll of Pakistan&amp;#039;s [[Inter-Service Intelligence|ISI]]&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;outlookindia.com1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.outlookindia.com/news/article/Geelani-on-ISI-Payroll-NC-Leader/768901|title=Geelani on ISI Payroll: NC Leader|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;daily.bhaskar.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://daily.bhaskar.com/news/NAT-TOP-geelani-on-payroll-of-isi-says-nc-leader-3529449.html|title=geelani on payroll of isi, says nc leader - daily.bhaskar.com|work=daily.bhaskar.com|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;in.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://ibnlive.in.com/news/geelani-on-payroll-of-isi-says-nc-leader/271529-37-64.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20150316105439/http://ibnlive.in.com/news/geelani-on-payroll-of-isi-says-nc-leader/271529-37-64.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=16 March 2015|title=Geelani on payroll of ISI, says NC leader|work=IBNLive|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kamal said &amp;quot;Geelani has tried to &amp;#039;ignite and incite&amp;#039; people by &amp;#039;hollow slogans and destructive emotionalism&amp;#039;, whenever even a Pakistani clerk comes to India and summons this ex-lawmaker(Geelani), he rushes to Delhi to take dictation about how to ensure that uncertainty prevails in the state.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;outlookindia.com1&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;daily.bhaskar.com&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;in.com&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.jammu-kashmir.com/insights/insight20020601a.html|title=Hurriyat Leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani&amp;#039;s Arrest – ISI Funding for Kashmiri Militants|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;indiatoday.intoday.in&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/hawala-nia-links-hurriyat-to-isi/1/147054.html|title=NIA nails Hurriyat&amp;#039;s links with the ISI|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pakistan also openly supported Geelani and Hurriyat, and representatives have had several meetings with Hurriyat leaders. A three-member delegation from the [[High Commissioner (Commonwealth)|Pakistan High Commission]] led by Abdul Basit met Geelani at his Malviya Nagar residence in March 2015. Pakistan [[High Commissioner (Commonwealth)|High Commissioner]] Abdul Basit assured Geelani of complete support conveying that the country&amp;#039;s stand on Kashmir remains unchanged despite the regime change in New Delhi.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.dawn.com/news/1168445|title=Pakistani high commissioner meets Hurriyat leader Geelani|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;dnaindia.com1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-pakistan-assures-syed-ali-geelani-of-complete-support-2067448|title=Pakistan assures Syed Ali Geelani of complete support|work=dna|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;asianage.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.asianage.com/india/pakistan-mischief-again-envoy-meets-syed-ali-geelani-429 |title=Pakistan mischief again: Envoy meets Syed Ali Geelani |work=The Asian Age |access-date=1 April 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150402113543/http://www.asianage.com/india/pakistan-mischief-again-envoy-meets-syed-ali-geelani-429 |archive-date=2 April 2015 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Basit also invited Geelani for a [[Pakistan Day]] function on 23 March.

===Paid riots===&lt;br /&gt;
Indian media vehicles reported that Geelani and Hurriyat are paying local unemployed young men to stage protests.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;india.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://zeenews.india.com/news/jammu-and-kashmir/hurriyat-paid-rs-400-for-jandk-stone-pelting-let-terrorist-participated_677068.html|title=Hurriyat paid Rs 400 for J&amp;amp;K stone-pelting, LeT terrorist participated|work=Zee News|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; According to them, arrested participants confessed being paid Rs 400($6–7) every Friday.&lt;br /&gt;
Police said the money is being raised locally by Hurriyat hardliner Syed Ali Shah Geelani&amp;#039;s followers.

&lt;br /&gt;
===Elections boycott===&lt;br /&gt;
Geelani and Hurriyat appealed to the people of Kashmir to boycott the 2014 [[2014 Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly election|Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly elections]] completely, arguing that: &amp;quot;India has been holding elections in the Valley using the power of gun and so such an exercise is not legitimate.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://ibnlive.in.com/news/syed-ali-shah-geelanis-jk-election-boycott-call-resonates-in-his-hometown-sopore/516279-37-64.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141204083945/http://ibnlive.in.com/news/syed-ali-shah-geelanis-jk-election-boycott-call-resonates-in-his-hometown-sopore/516279-37-64.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=4 December 2014|title=Syed Ali Shah Geelani&amp;#039;s J&amp;amp;K election boycott call resonates in his hometown Sopore|work=IBNLive|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; But despite repeated boycott appeals, the 2014 assembly election recorded record voter turnout of more than 65% which was the highest in 25 years of history and higher than normal voting percentages in other states of India.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ndtv.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url = http://www.ndtv.com/assembly/jammu-and-kashmir-registers-highest-voter-turnout-in-25-years-jharkhand-breaks-records-715845|title = Jammu and Kashmir Registers Highest Voter Turnout in 25 Years, Jharkhand Breaks Records|date = 20 December 2014|work = NDTV.com|access-date = 1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.deccanchronicle.com/141223/nation-current-affairs/article/jammu-and-kashmir-registers-highest-voter-turnout-25-years|title=Jammu and Kashmir registers highest voter turnout in 25 years, Jharkhand breaks records|work=Deccan Chronicle|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://ibnlive.in.com/news/jk-polls-76-per-cent-voter-turnout-recorded-in-the-final-phase/519066-3-245.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20150315203847/http://ibnlive.in.com/news/jk-polls-76-per-cent-voter-turnout-recorded-in-the-final-phase/519066-3-245.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=15 March 2015|title=J&amp;amp;K polls: 76 per cent voter turnout recorded in the final phase|work=IBNLive|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

After record voting percentage in Kashmir, Hurriyat and its leaders have been heavily criticised by mainstream media for misleading the people of Kashmir and for not representing their true sentiments.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://eptoday.com/high-voter-turnout-jammu-kashmir-assembly-elections-debilitating-blow-separatists-resilient-boost-indian-democracy/|title=High Voter Turnout in Jammu &amp;amp; Kashmir Assembly Elections : A Debilitating Blow to Separatists and Resilient Boost for Indian Democracy|work=EP TODAY|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.indiaafricaconnect.in/index.php?param=news/88/panorama/115|title=Welcome To India Africa Connect – Panorama – Braving bullets, Kashmiris embrace ballot for development|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://indianexpress.com/article/india/politics/jharkhand-jk-vote-for-phase-1-of-assembly-elections-today/|title=J&amp;amp;K polls: Valley opts for ballot over bullet with 71 per cent voting in first phase|date=25 November 2014|work=The Indian Express|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://blogs.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/toi-editorials/ballot-over-bullet-brisk-voting-in-jk-and-jharkhand-showcases-faith-in-democracy/|title=Ballot over bullet: Brisk voting in J&amp;amp;K and Jharkhand showcases faith in democracy|work=Times of India Blogs|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
India&amp;#039;s Prime Minister [[Narendra Modi]] said of the high election voter turnout: &amp;quot;Separatist militants are frustrated because they are feeling that despite the use of guns and bombs and killing people, democracy is still alive in this state. I want to congratulate those voters of J&amp;amp;K who have voted in large numbers and made democracy victorious irrespective of the outcome.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2014-11-28/news/56540384_1_jammu-and-kashmir-prime-minister-narendra-modi-nc-congress|title=People of Jammu and Kashmir have rejected bullet for ballot: PM Narendra Modi|work=timesofindia-economictimes|access-date=1 April 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
