Chairman Kashmir Council EU Ali Raza Syed has said, extension of presidential rule by Indian central authority in Indian Held Kashmir (IHK) cannot stop struggle of Kashmiri people for freedom from Indian occupation.
It is important to mention that presidential rule, which was imposed by Indian central authority in Indian Held Kashmir (IHK) after expiration of governor rule, has been extended for six month from Wednesday. In a statement while condemning the extension of presidential rule in IHK, Ali Raza Syed said, presidential rule or, governor rule or holding elections of so-called local legislative assembly under New Delhi’s rule in IHK is not a solution of the issue of Kashmir. There should be a plebiscite under United Nations supervision in IHK in order to make logical political fate of the disputed Jammu and Kashmir’s territory.
Chairman Kashmir Council EU said, all of the Indian political tricks and dishonest practices in Jammu & Kashmir under its constitution are unacceptable to the Kashmiris.
Kashmiri people are struggling for their right to self-determination but India wants to show that the Held Kashmir is also its integral part. But Kashmir is a disputed territory and the people of Kashmir just want freedom from Indian occupation.
It is a fact that a large scale human rights violations are being committed by the Indian forces in IHK. Indian authorities are engaged to press the mass resistance by use of force and brutalities.
Praising last year’s UN report on human rights in IHK, Chairman Kashmir Council EU said, another report of the international body would be appeared soon and many other international human rights organizations confirmed also the severe human rights violation in IHK.
He called the international community to take serious notice of the severe situation in the held Kashmir (IHK).
It is time now that international community should pressurize India to stop abuses of human rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
He also emphasized that Kashmiri people will continue their struggle for freedom from Indian rule. India has forcefully held the state of Jammu and Kashmir but people of Kashmir want their right of self-determination at any cost.
