Panun Kashmir Delhi Co-ordinator Vithal Chowdhary, who fled J&K when he was just seven years old, said, their demands were very simple and their protests always have been “against the Indian state and not the Indian nation”.  

The protesters also alleged that Farooq's recent remarks that “those who vote for Modi should drown in the sea” was a way for the father-son duo to “absolve” themselves of their responsibilities.

“Among our other demands is a piece of land back in our homeland Kashmir where we can live and be governed by a free flow of the Constitution, without the shadow of Article 370 over our head.

We don't want to be treated as minorities but as any other Indian,” he said.
