OBSERVE INDIA’S REPUBLIC DAY AS BLACK DAY: JKPL

Jammu Kashmir Peoples League, a constituent of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference, today held an extraordinary meeting at district office Islamabad has appealed the people to observe India’s Republic Day as black day.

While addressing in a meeting, senior APHC leader and vice Chairman of JKPL, Mukhtar Ahmad Waza said that the Kashmiris had been fighting for the right to self-determination and Indian Republic Day had no relevance in Jammu and Kashmir. He also castigated the puppet administration for subjecting people to harassment and intimidation in the name of so-called security measures. He said that the whole Jammu and Kashmir had been turned into military garrison and people are being denied free movement

Waza asked the Kashmiri people to observe India’s Republic Day on January 26 as black day to convey to the world community that New Delhi continued to deny them their inalienable right to self-determination.

He urged India to take steps to create conducive atmosphere for resolving the Kashmir dispute through tripartite talks so that permanent peace could be established in South Asia. “Withdrawal of troops, repeal of black laws, and release of pro-freedom leaders and activists besides an end to the state terrorism in Kashmir can be helpful towards resolving the lingering dispute,” he added.

World Supremacies Should Support Plebiscite Of Kashmir As They Did In South Sudan And East Timor: JKPL

Senior APHC Leader and Vice Chairman Jammu Kashmir Peoples League, Mukhtar Ahmad Waza has urged world supremacies to discard double standards on freedom resolutions in Kashmir, after having maneuvered the separation of South Sudan from its Northern region and East Timor from Indonesia through a week-long referendum, being monitored by Western organizations.
Mukhtar Waza While addressing a congregation after Friday prayers at Jamia Masjid Mattan, South Kashmir Anantnag district said that the partition of a sovereign State like Sudan into Muslim and Christian states would not have been possible without long world supremacies. Waza said that when there was the question of plebiscite for Kashmir, the Kashmiris were made victims of sheer religious and ethnic fanaticism to escape from the implementation of 18 UN resolutions. He said that the same powers stage-managed secession of South Sudan from North Sudan and East Timor from Indonesia by Plebiscite.
“If only human rights violations of a regime were enough to grant the right to freedom to the people of a particular region or religion, then why not Kashmir, where people were being slaughtered and women gang-raped for the last 21 years by the army and police of India. This is religious divide and amounts to destabilizing and disintegrating the Muslim world to plunge them into impoverishment and economic dependence and despondency,” he added.
Waza said that having separated East Timor from Indonesia, and now maneuvering independence of South Sudan from the North Sudan under the pretext of the religious differences, Kashmir was even more genuine case for freedom because of the international resolutions. He said in order to avert further threats to regional and international peace America and the West should equally support plebiscite of Kashmir as they did in Sudan and do away with their hypocrisy in the Muslim World. “By supporting India on the issue of Kashmir and encouraging pro-freedom amongst Muslim nations, the West is nakedly jeopardizing world peace and civilizations,” he warned.

Waza opined that international facilitation and good offices of the friendly countries can push the process of reconciliation and help in the solution of outstanding problems while political far sight and statesman like approach will also help the process.
“What is essential is the realization of the aspiration of the people of Jammu and Kashmir and a reference to the people of Jammu and Kashmir for permanent and durable peace in south Asia,” he stated.
Waza also expressed serious concern over the worsening health conditions of pro-freedom leaders including Advocate Mian Abdul Qayoom, Advocate G. N. Shaheen, Zaffar Akber Bhat, Yasmeen Raja and activists. He said that New Delhi was keeping the leaders behind the bars to suppress the ongoing liberation movement. This has exposed India’s tall claims of being a democratic country.
Waza sought immediate intervention of international human rights bodies to ensure their release.
