A one-day Hurriyat session on Saturday here was disallowed by the Jammu and Kashmir authorities, who also placed separatist leader Mirwaiz Umer Farooq under house arrest.
"One-day #Hurriyat workers/delegate session barred! Put again under #HouseArrest! Rajbagh office of Hurriyat sealed! Not allowed any space or scope for any political activity!" Umer Farooq tweeted.
"So much for practising honest democracy Governor sahib!" he said taking a dig at Governor Satya Pal Malik.
The uptown Rajbagh office of the Hurriyat group was shut down to prevent any assembly of separatist forces.
