India has run out of all options

Islamabad

Jammu and Kashmir Council for Human Rights (JKCHR) has said that India has run out of all options and is left with only ‘military option’ to humble the people of Kashmir. All its non-military initiatives which chime with the culture and the instincts of the people have also failed. So India is doomed to taste dust and defeat in Kashmir. Even America with all its military might and overbearing presence has failed to prosecute its military option in Afghanistan and in many other places, says a press release.

JKCHR President Dr. Syed Nazir Gilani has said that India is occupying only a part of the state and is making desperate efforts to suppress only one Kashmiri living on its side. The other three Kashmiris living at Muzaffarabad, Gilgit and the Kashmiri diaspora are free to launch political, diplomatic and a military struggle against Indian occupation of a part of the state territory.

India may have size and broad spread of economics as a promise but these do not serve well if the country is caught in the violation of UN Resolutions and has erred towards a people outsourced to it by the United Nations on a temporary basis. Rights regime has developed over the years and size of a country and the number of its people do not make it big or small anymore.

Dr. Nazir Gilani who lead a four member delegation to the 35th session of UN Human Rights Council and met the Human Rights Officer responsible for India and Pakistan in the OHCHR office at the UN in Geneva said that Marshall Islands -- a Pacific Ocean territory of 55,000 people has taken Britain, India and Pakistan to international court of justice over nuclear weapons. In 2014, the Marshall Islands accused nine countries of “not fulfilling their obligations with respect to the cessation of the nuclear arms race at an early date and to nuclear disarmament”. They included China, Britain, France, India, Israel, North Korea, Pakistan, Russia and the United States.

Jammu and Kashmir is much larger in size and the people are distributed under three administrations and a large diaspora spread all over the world. There is a UN mechanism agreed to ascertain the free choice of the people of Kashmir under the UN supervision. United Nations mechanism provides for a peaceful resolution of the dispute. However, it does not preclude the use of force if the people are occupied against their choice and subjected to a military repression.

JKCHR statement has said that citizens of the state living in the two administrations on the Pakistani side of the cease fire line, the diaspora and over 2 million displaced Kashmiris (five generations since 1947, 1965, 1971 and 1990) living in Azad Kashmir and various parts of Pakistan are free to enter and exit any part of the state, occupied by India. If these people wish to assert their right to enter and exit the state under the UN Security Council Resolution of 21 April 1948 the arrogance of Indian self-confidence would evaporate in thin air. Indian soldiers and others who have played the Radovan Karadzic and Jean-Pierre Bemba in Kashmir Valley would have to face the criminal and civil liability in the future.
