Separatist JKLF today alleged its chairman Mohammad Yasin Malik and his family were forced to spend several hours on road in Delhi after they were forced to leave the hotel booked by them.
Yasin Malik and his family, including an 18-month-old daughter, went to Delhi Sunday and booked two rooms in a hotel near Nizam-ud-din, the JKLF said in a statement here.
However, they were asked to leave around midnight by the hotel management, it alleged.
The party leader and his family had to wait on the roadside for several hours before they took shelter in a friend's house, the statement said.
"If Delhi gets upset due to our presence there, it should formally introduce a law that could prevent the people of Kashmir from visiting the national capital," it said.
"Only due to the person's political ideology, he was thrown out of the hotel along with his family. Such action cannot be legitimised at any level," the statement said.
