Preface to the protest calendar sent by Hurriyat (M) chief Mirwaiz Umar Farooq

"As a war has been waged against us by a mighty force, our only means of resistance against the oppression is peaceful protest. The space for that is also highly constricted. Yet individually and collectively we have to find ways and means of registering our protest . The protest calender is our collective voice. Each one of us especially our  intelligentsia, artists,  poets ,writers, painters  have to come forward and use their skills and creativity  to express our pain and sentiment. Every Kashmiris contribution to the  movement counts."
