People of J&K have been the victim of the PERSONAL Ambitions of some, mishandling of the affairs , wrong quotes regarding J&K and unchecked propagation / misrepresentations / anti opinions . Such things also reflect from the Contents of the final report that the Interlocutors for J&K 2010 submitted on 12 Oct 2011 to Home Minister of Indian Republic. The report of interlocutors 2010 has been a rushed through exercise and has many incompleteness and errors. The IR suggests for appointment of a .Constitutional Committee that should decide the needed amendments to Constitution of India as well as Constitution of J&K to be considered by the Parliament of India for incorporation under article 370 ( keeping in view the constitutional status as existed before signing of 1952 Delhi Agreement ) and even modification / abrogation of Article 370 where as so far experts of the same class were advocating that even parliament of India with absolute majorities can not touch Article 370. The IR uses erroneously the term Pakistan Administered J&K for POJK areas although for all purposes that areas have officially defined and recognized as Pakistan Occupied Areas ( POJK) and simultaneously quotes 22nd February 1994 Parliament Resolution ( that resolves that Pakistan must vacate the areas of the Indian State of Jammu and Kashmir, which they have occupied through aggression;) in support of some suggestions made . Similarly the IR erroneously names the Displaced persons from Pakistan Occupied ( 1947/48 ) areas of J&K as Migrants where as the official term used for them as per order No : 1476-C of 1950 dated 16.12.1950 issued under the signatures of Sheikh Mohd Abdullah PM of J&K is and has been Displaced Persons. ( DPs ).POK Migrants. And so erroneously the report recommends that POJK DPs (" migrants") be given the status of State Subjects (.Executive Summary- IX page-8 Road Map ) where as the POJK DPs are already State Subjects.
The report on page 39 makes reference of a report of the European Parliament in 2007, authored by Baroness Emma Nicholson, interpreted the 'four-point formula' that had emerged from the Manmohan Singh-Pervez Musharraf talks as providing self-determination for the former princely State.. The interlocutors should have taken confirmation / explanation from GOI for the reference as made in the report of the European Parliament in 2007 :: 'four-point formula' that had emerged from the Manmohan Singh-Pervez Musharraf talks as providing self-determination for the former princely State." Making reference here without doing that would only push the innocent people of J&K into more confusing distress. Government of India must atleast now come out with a statement on this since the IR on the Government website now.. On page 58 item-16 the IR says…the order will need to be ratified in Parliament and Legislature by margin not less than 2/3rd majority of total members present and voting… On page-6 item -V the report even dilutes the scope of the Accession 1947 with India by excluding even the subjects of foreign affairs and communication by recommending that .. "Parliament will make no laws applicable to the State unless it relates to country's internal and external security, and it's vital economic interests- especially in the areas of energy and access to water resources…. "
The Interlocutors Report has been kept close to the chest by the Home Minister for 7 months.
The contents of the report required a very serious examination by GOI but it appears that the same was not done. The impressions that have gone are that the report was simply got loaded on the website by Home Minister , may be even without reading it. Had any Home Minister read it , the report would not have been loaded on the website atleast without observations.
The handling of the IR by GOI is another demonstration of the non seriousness that GOI and Indian leaders who mattered have shown towards the so serious J&K affairs right since 1946-47.
GOI has all these years taken the affairs very lightly but separatists ( Anti India elements ) / others ( anti government of India elements ) have taken their programmes / propaganda / campaigns very seriously. GOI sitting on reports of committees like Saghir And Report 2009 ( 5th WG pf PM) and Interlocutor for J&K Report 2011 has been providing opportunities to Anti India ( anti India Nation) and Anti GOI elements to cultivate confusions and anti India views amongst innocent people of J&K ( even the outside world). Mehboob Baig NC MP while participating the debate of Violence against the people of NE in Lok Sabha on 17th August 2012 accused government of India of being not serious about the serious issues including J&K. He did make a reference of Report of interlocutors having been not attended to. Bad effects on some innocent minds could be well gauzed from the fact that one Dr Raja Muzaffar Bhat , so called RTI NGO Convener , from Kashmir Valley has said on 10th August 2012 that IPO ( Indian Postal Order ) should not be accepted with RTI applications in J&K since the money goes to GOI.
When the Group of Interlocutors for Jammu & Kashmir report has some wrong / casual quotes even on some basic and common facts how could one expect that the interlocutors, who had encountered many new / unknown faces and dimensions of J&K during their 11 month interactions and tours , had time / capacity and technical support worth examining the constitutional law, constitutional procedures, the legal requirements and the needs for settlement of ideological / administrative and constitutional flares about J&K . But the Interlocutors in their ' A New Compact with the People of Jammu and Kashmir ' have even gone to the extent of recommending Regional Councils. Even the minors of the subjects to be allocated to regional councils have been touched. Ek aesee report jis mein mool tatboan ke vishay mein bhi etnee kamiaan hon, oos ke lekhak etnae vistaar se sujaab kisee doosarae ki kalam ka saharaa leeyae bina kaesae kar saktae hain, jaesa prashan report ki vishavasneata par jaroor sawaal khadae karate hain. Kam se kam Dileep Padgaonkar ke str ke vaartakaar ko to eis ka oottar dena chahiyae .
