| Pak reacts by raising Kashmir issue at the UN | | |
To every action from India Pakistan makes its habit to give its reaction. Following the signing of agreements between France and India in the sectors of defence trade Pakistan could not stop reacting against it by raising the issue of Kashmir in the UN Security Council. And for the last two years Pakistan has been making determined bid to raise the Kashmir issue on one pretext or the other. And when India signs agreements for raising the foreign investment to enable India to achieve its dream o "Make India" a reality Islamabad has to raise or reraise the issue of Kashmir in the UN security council. At time its representative touches upon alleged atrocities being committee by the security forces on the people in Kashmir without knowing that what a hell these militants, supported by Pakistan have converted the Heaven on Earth. And Pakistan has a grouse after India's agreement with Germany, US, France and other countries have materialized. As far as the agreement with France is concerned it covered defence, trade, investment and security. Responding to Islamabad's bid to raise the Kashmir issue for a second day at the UN Human Rights Council meeting in Geneva, India denounced Pakistan as a "failed state" where terrorists thrived and Osama Bin Laden received protection, and demanded that it bring the perpetrators of the Mumbai, Pathankot and Uri attacks to justice. Even as terrorists thrive in Pakistan and roam its streets with impunity, India has heard it lecture about the protection of human rights in India," Mini Devi Kumam, a Second Secretary at the India's UN Mission in Geneva, said.
India awaits credible action by the Government of Pakistan to bring all those involved in the 2008 Mumbai attack and the 2016 Pathankot and Uri attacks to justice. The world does not need lessons on democracy and human rights from a country whose own situation is charitably described as a failed state.
Kumam was responding to Tahir Andrabi, Pakistan's UN Deputy Permanent Representative in Geneva, who earlier invoked Jawaharlal Nehru to make his case for a plebiscite in Kashmir. Andrabi said that at the heart of the Kashmir problem is the right to self-determination which was conceded by "the first Prime Minister of India, one of the founding fathers of India" and by the UN Security Council through a plebiscite. Kumum said, "Pakistan keeps referring to UN Security Council Resolutions on Jammu and Kashmir. However, it very conveniently forgets its own obligation under these resolutions to first vacate the illegal occupation of Pakistan Occupied Kashmir. It has also blatantly disregarded its other commitments, be it under the 1972 Simla Agreement or Lahore Declaration of February 1999." Instead, "they continue to support cross-border terrorism in India," she said. In the Simla Agreement signed by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and then-Pakistan President Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, the two countries agreed that the Kashmir issue is a bilateral issue that had to be resolved without third-party involvement. The Lahore Declaration by Prime Ministers Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Nawaz Sharif commits the two nations to avoid a nuclear arms race.
The US-based Muhajir community has welcomed India's statement in the UN human rights session on state atrocities committed by Pakistan in Sindh, Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provinces. The inclusion of the name of Sindh in India's statement on human rights violations is an important and encouraging development for 70 million Muhajirs," Nadeem Nusrat, a US-based Muhajir leader and former convener of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), said. Appreciating the Indian government for raising its voice on the plight of Muhajirs in Pakistan, Nusrat said Sindh, especially Karachi city and urban centres of Sindh province, had been neglected previously by the world community while highlighting persecution of ethnic groups in Pakistan.
Earlier this year, MQM had launched 'Free Karachi' campaign aimed at highlighting the alleged state-sponsored atrocities on the Muhajirs and other ethnic minority communities in the port city of Pakistan The only way to force Pakistan to keep mum on Indian security forces committing atrocities on people in Kashmir is to remained Pakistan its role in Singh where the Muhajirs were treated like animals. Even the dreaded militants infiltrated into Jammu and Kashmir have not been eliminated but arrested and they get fatty day after day on the provisions supplied by the Kashmir Government. Here lies the difference between India and Pakistan. In Pakistan the Government uses Army to kill civilians. |
