| Even Pak President tells lies | | | Pakistan seems to be obsessed with Kashmir and that is the reason for its leaders harping on the issue whether there is an occasion or not. On one side Pakistan pledges to promote peace in the region and on the other hand it has been supporting and exporting terrorists to India, especially to Jammu and Kashmir. It does so to raise the level of militancy related violence so that Islamabad keeps on raking up the Kashmir issue in the global markets and for a. And now it is the turn of Pakistan President Mamnoon Hussain to accuse India of ceasefire violations and human rights abuses, saying New Delhi's actions have put regional peace at stake. He also raised the Kashmir issue at the "Pakistan Day" joint military parade here. Pakistan Day commemorates the passing of the famous Lahore Resolution on March 23, 1940, when the All-India Muslim League demanded a separate homeland for the Muslims of British India. On this day in 1956, Pakistan became the world's first Islamic republic. Yes, Pakistan has become an Islamic republic and not a nation where democracy and democratic practices thrive because of the fact that Pakistan has remained under the military rule for most of the time.
It does not befit President of a country to tell lies and that is what Mamnoon Hussain has done. Referring to cross-border ceasefire violations President Mamnoon accused India of gross human rights violations in Kashmir. From ceasefire violations Pakistan President has jumped to human rights violations in Kashmir without holding its Army responsible for sustained attempts at ceasefire violations which has forced several thousand border villagers to flee to safer places. "With these actions, Pakistan's neighbour has put the regional peace at stake," he said.
Calling upon for an immediate and peaceful resolution of the struggle of Kashmiri people, the President said, "The only solution to the dispute of Kashmir is to provide the right of self-determination to Kashmiris, and Pakistan will continue to play its role in this regard. "Is grant of self-determination to the people of Kashmir the only way to settle the Kashmir issue? Opinions vary that too in Pakistan. Some leaders have been harping on implementation of the UN resolutions without knowing that if these resolutions were not implemented it is only Pakistan responsible for it. He said that Pakistan was ready to extend a hand of co-operation to the regional countries, but "taking it as a weakness will be a dangerous mistake".
Mamnoon also said that the global scenario has changed, and now countries could not be coerced to tow the line of one particular country.
Cautioning against exploitation, suppression of nations and interference into the internal affairs of any country by another nation, he said "Pakistan's foreign policy was about achieving permanent peace in the world and is based on non-interference into internal issues of other countries". He said that Pakistan had been playing a vital role for the global peace and rendering commendable services from the UN platform for it. On the issue of Afghanistan, Mamnoon said that Pakistan would continue playing its role for peaceful resolution of the Afghan issue.
"Pakistan had always played a historic role in the peaceful settlement of Afghan issue and for the stability of the Afghanistan government."
He also stressed that efforts to curb terrorism should continue so that achievements made so far could be further strengthened. Now Mamnoon says that Pakistan's job is to contain terror in Afghanistan after it has made Afghanistan a haven for terrorists. And the way Pakistan has been supporting insurgency in Jammu and Kashmir is an indication of its assistance to terrorists. |
