Indian Atrocities Continue on Kashmiris
By ahsan • Oct 5th, 2009 • Category: Politics • 27 CommentsUnder the new puppet regime in the occupied Kashmir, atrocities on the innocent Kashmiris by the Indian security forces continue unabated. Perennial tactics of state terrorism such as curfew, firing, killings, rape and arrests could not reduce the strong determination of the people of the Valley, calling for freedom of their land. In the recent past, Indian police, military and paramilitary troops massacred a number of people protesting against the death of three Kashmiri women who were raped and murdered. In another event, Indian military troops kidnapped some freedom fighters and assassinated them near the Line of Control in order to show that they died during an encounter with the forces. More than 300 innocent people in the Indian occupied Kashmir have been killed by the Indian forces since the current phase of Kashmir struggle began on August 12, 2008 when Indian security forces killed Hurriyat Conference leader Sheikh Abdul Aziz and five other persons who were protesting against the government decision to give land to the trust that runs Amarnath, a shrine of Hindus. On the same day, more than 200000 Kashmiris marched towards the Martyrs Graveyard to participate in the funeral of Sheikh Abdul Aziz. The police killed 18 innocent Muslims by firing while extremist Hindus started violent protests and economic blockade of the Muslims, emulating the Israeli siege of Gaza which had resulted in starvation of thousands of innocent Palestinians.
In 1989 when Kashmiri people lost faith in the international community, which persisted in ignoring their liberation and when it became obvious that the Indian occupation forces would not vacate the controlled areas through political means by implementing the UN resolutions, the people had no choice but to resort to armed struggle. Since then, India has intermittently been using all possible techniques of state terrorism to maintain its alien rule. Indian atrocities could be judged from the fact that last year, more than 1000 graves of the unmarked Muslims in the 18 villages of Indian occupied Kashmir were discovered. Recently, a human rights group has discovered several unmarked graves containing about 1,500 unidentified bodies in held Kashmir Valley. The All Parties Hurriyet Conference (APHC) and other organizations, while expressing serious concern over the discovery of unnamed graves in the occupied Kashmir, have demanded international probe into the matter. Reports suggest that these are the dead bodies of those Kashmiris who were tortured to death by the Indian security agencies, especially RAW.
The silence of the West broke when in 2008; European Parliament while taking cognizance of the unmarked graves passed a resolution condemning Indian atrocities in the held Kashmir. Contrary to the past, this time Indian occupied Kashmir has become a special focus of world’s attention including India itself. For example, British Foreign Secretary David Miliband who visited New Delhi and Islamabad in the aftermath of Mumbai-terror attacks pointed out that complete de-escalation of situation between Pakistan and India was fully linked to resolution of Kashmir issue saying that New Delhi should cooperate with Islamabad in this respect. Even Indians have started realizing that, there should be an end to the sufferings of Kashmiris. It gravity is evident from the fact that even Indian intellectuals have favored the independence of occupied Kashmir. On 17 August 2008 in its editorial, the editor of The Times of India wrote “On August 15, India celebrated independence from the British Raj. A day symbolizing the end of colonialism in India became a day symbolizing Indian colonialism in the Valley”.
The editor further elaborated, “We promised Kashmiris a plebiscite six decades ago. Let us hold one now, and let Kashmiris decide the outcome, not the politicians and armies of India”. It was admitted that state elections were also rigged in support of leaders nominated by New Delhi. On August 16, 2008, Hindustan Times wrote: “Nothing has really changed since 1990s. A single spark such as the dispute over Amarnath land can set the whole valley on fire—Indian forces are treated as subjugators. New Delhi is seen as the oppressor”. The paper further indicated, “The current crisis in Kashmir is a consequence of Indian establishment raising the confrontation to a new level”. The world looks at us with dismay”. This Indian newspaper clearly suggested a referendum in the Valley, writing, “Let the Kashmiris determine their own destiny—whatever happens, how can India lose? If you believe in democracy, then giving Kashmiris the right of self-determination is the correct thing to do”.
It is of particular attention that demanding immediate withdrawal of Indian Army from the Indian controlled Kashmir, a renowned Indian author and book prize winner, Arundhati Roy, while criticizing the Indian media had already pointed out that New Delhi has failed to highlight the plight of Kashmiris who are exposed to brutalities perpetrated by the Indian Security Forces. As regards Indian delaying tactics in the solution of Kashmir dispute, it has become fashion to blame Pakistan and its intelligence agency ISI for infiltration, using it as a pretext to crush the Kashmiri’s war of liberation which is indigenous as now recognized even by Indian media. Under the cover of ISI, New Delhi wants to distract the attention of the West from her atrocities on the Kashmiris. Various sources have accused Indian RAW of the custodial killings of the Kashmiri people through brutal methods. Since 1989, India has deployed more than 500000 troops to quell the freedom movement of Kashmiris, but it cannot eliminate it at present as it could not do so through many years of oppression. Instead, a study report, prepared by Indian Government revealed that Kashmir violence has affected the psyche of Indian forces. In this connection, the report has disclosed that disturbances in Jammu and Kashmir have had adverse psychological problems found especially among the officers and Jawans such as short tempers, quarrelsome attitude, mental disorders and abnormal behavior. Sometimes, the situation leads to suicide attempts or attacks on their seniors and colleagues.
Nevertheless, setting aside all internal and external implications, Indian military troops are using inhuman tactics of ethnic cleansing to disturb the majority population of the Kashmiris, which had been practiced by the Serb forces on Bosnian Muslims in the past and recently by Israel on the Palestinians. New Delhi must understand that if in the last five decades, it could not reduce the strong determination of the people of the Valley, calling for freedom of their land, how could it do so now? Meanwhile, in the past, ‘composite dialogue’ between India and Pakistan took place on a number of occasions, but produced no results, prolonging the agony of the subjugated people of the occupied valley due to Indian intransigence. At present, India is acting on a deliberate policy of delaying tactics in relation to the solution of Kashmir and implementing similar strategy under the pretext of Mumbai carnage. Despite Islamabad’s insistence, New Delhi wants to talk on the issue of terrorism alone and refuses to discuss any other issue. While the world is rapidly advancing towards modern trends such as renunciation of war as a state policy, peaceful settlement of disputes and economic development, India continues its suppressive policies in Kashmir.

yeah…the atrocities will continue.
What are you doing about it? Blogging?
Are you trying to get international attention?
You tried terrorism ,look where you are. On life support.
This article reminds me of Balochistan
As you treated Bangali Muslims, Baloch, Sindhis, Mohajirs, and Ahmadis with lot of respect and dignity, Kashmiris would be dreaming of being part of Pakistan.
Hi Zahoor,
Now it comes to light the sophian rape was carried out by a section of socalled “Freedom fighters” from Army of Islam and creat a problem for Indians so that International media do a diversion. Ofcourse at the very moment your chithral scouts sodomised a 3 yearold boy in Balwaristhan and dumped his body in Hunza.
As per your statistics 300 freedom fighters killed by Indian troops. Can you give exact figyures of people killed by your troops and airforce in SWAT. Complete media blackout.People say there are 5 million people who have run away from your own Army as IDPs!!!!! Now already as per American direction your army is going to kill south wazirstani Mehsuds.
God was in the process of creating the universe. And he was explaining his subordinates…
“Look everything should be in balance. For example, after every 10 deers there should be a lion. Look here my fellow angels, here is the country of the United States I have blessed them with prosperity and money. But at the same time I have given them insecurity and tension…
And here is Africa. I have given them beautiful nature. But at the same time, I have given them climatic extremes…
And here is South America. I have given them lots of forests. But at the same time, I have given them lesser land so that they would have to cut off the forests… So you see fellows, everything should be in balance.
One of the angels asked… “God, what is this extremely beautiful country here?” God said……. “Ahah…that is the crown piece of all. “INDIA”, my most precious creation. It has understanding and friendly people. Sparkling streams, serene mountains. A culture which speaks of the great tradition that they live. Technologically brilliant and with a heart of gold…
The angel was quite surprised “But god you said everything should be in balance.”
God replied - “Look at the neighbours, I gave them.”
Not to worry they are fast catching up in Pakistani Kashmir….
AHMADI MUSLIMS DECLARED ‘WAJIBUL QATL’ IN PAKISTAN CONTROLLED KASHMIR
Persecution of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat in Azad-Kashmir has markedly increased in recent weeks and months, particularly in the Bhimber District.
A number of extremist organisations banned by the Government of Pakistan have continued to preach their hate filled messages by virtue of simply altering the names of their organisations. All available evidence strongly suggests that they are being supported, financially and otherwise, by a number of local politicians.
The situation has become extremely dangerous for the local Ahmadi population as the local clerics are issuing regular Fatwas pronouncing that all Ahmadis are ‘Wajibul-Qatl’ which means they can and should be lawfully killed due to their beliefs. Furthermore hateful and provocative literature is being published and disseminated amongst the masses in opposition to the Jamaat.

One would think at least Kashmiris would be against religious oppression….Obviously not.

Jai
you delivered a good joke and you can put any country’s name on this imagination but believe me Allah gives opportunities to all his creation with big heart irrespective of boundaries marked by humans and never make difference for any particular community that is why He is known as almighty God having an unlimited and absolute powers Such jokes are creation of people like you and me to show us our superiority complex on each other ,a human habit that cant be avoided that is why we are called human kind a implacably hostile specie.
I just give you comments of some students from university of mumbia who two years back came to Pakistan on some student exchange program and after living in lahore for two months they simple commented on life of majority of Pakistanis and considered still much better than Indians living in slums in major cities of India near very modern vicinities.They even put the rural life of our neglected farmers on high ranks than India’s village life.
So what ever our crook management is doing mess in cross border terrorism, India is also responding us with more fatal ways by spreading arms culture in the region but still ordinary life of Pakistanis are more content tha vast low class Indians
Cool down Nazia cool down………………….whatever you said above is absolutely right……………….please neglect Jai Ho ! This man is OVER patriotic……………. Just like God’s balance theory……through his comments………..Jai Ho! wants to keep balance between himself and Zahoor Mian
I dont agree much to the content of the write up even though I havent been to the root areas of POK AND IOK as mentioned so wont comment on the root issues mentioned!
I thought only policians of both countries can deliver speeches that create hatred and mess…But I was wrong after reading the comments that came here after this write up!
Keep fighting everyone !! Keep arguing !! Keep hating each other!! looks cool… I thought genral public of both countries dont carry hatred and sarcasm but I was wrong again!
thanks mr author for writing this and thanks to all the commentators for carrying on the flame of the author !! You guys are gems!!
regards!
PS - an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind
Adding another dimension to “Jai Ho’s” comment.
In 1947, Pakistan (an islamic state) was created on HINDU lands…………within a year ISLAMIC lands were taken away and Israel was created
Balance.
Muslims giving birth to more and more babies(future muslims) ……large Number of muslims killed everyday
Balance.
It is not Muslims that are giving birth to more babies but all under privileged classes, castes, regardless of religion in under developed and developed areas have this practice so again your theory of balance is wrong,In USA black people are producing babies like rabbits but they get black president after 100 years in US history so your principle never applied on them.
Again jews were killed in vicinity of Germany by German people but jews have no grudge with German any more but Muslims and Muslim lands are being subject to jews torture for years and years,So why your balance theory is not applied on them,
Balance theory works perfectly:
Christians persecuted the Jews at one time in History………today Jews CONTROL the greatest Christian country-USA-its military,its economy
Balance.
On the question of Israel……Jesus Christ was born in a JEWISH COUNTRY in Bethlehem..its a well known historical fact. So a JEWS STATE ALWAYS EXISTED in Israel.
R
You only take one point from history and call it as balance theory.Christians many time persecuted jews since the death of Christ and this was going on and on till hitler died. The nazi party comprised of he Nazi leadership had a largely Christian background (people such as Hitler, Himmler, Goebbels were Roman Catholic apostates so this war of persecution remained between them for centuries and not a one time game.
Muslim as ottomon empires only persecuted them harshly otherwise even Holy Prophet era was not considered as persecuted phase for jews. so why jews only targeted Muslims to massacres or grabbing their land and on the opposite side giving business ventures and economic stabilities to Christian people only.
Your balance theory again does nt match with real historical facts.
Look Nazia.
There are 500 million Israel-hating muslims SURROUNDING only 8 million Jews.
500 million or more muslims of middle-east,iran,Pakistan wants to finish off Israel.
Now tell me what will 8 million Jews do in the face of such huge opposition?
Jews today control Media, Arms companies, Banks, Military of Christian countries.
USA for all its power CANNOT GO AGAINST the wishes of Israel.
Thats how Jews have taken their revenge.
Thats how Balance is established.
I don’t agree with your hate theory as I rejected you balance theory. I have seen that when jews were hit by moroccon extremists in Casablanca bomb blasts then their king took stern actions against Muslims groups and wiped them off and whole Muslim community appreciated his act as jews are living their for centuries with harmony with pure Sunni sect.
In NJ/NY area major oil companies are being run by jews and they have given opportunity to hundreds of muslims living there.
In many countries and even in gaza strips many marriage between jews and Muslims have been made and couples are living happily without any problems. you can read this link.
ttp://www.thenational.ae/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090925/FOREIGN/709249932/1135
UAE always show sentiments against Israel but all HQ of jews company and banks are in hub of dubai where 90% employees are Muslims.
You would be surprise to hear that sons of our bureaucrats and generals have been hired here after direct US influence.Same is happening in Saudi.So where there is will and interest of wealth for richer groups, all religious constraints are ignored .
Such hate culture is just promoted by political groups for developing war culture in weak and thickly populated countries and run the war industry.Pakistan has nuclear bomb and owns one of largest army in the world and Saudi has one of modern weaponry army nearby Israel.Did it ever favour any poor Palestinians dying there on daily basis or they any time try to harass Israel to stop putting economic constraints on common citizens of gaza belt?
Jews control the world through their brains not with sentiments of hate that is reason of their success.We Muslims only encircle ourselves in hate environment constraints and that is basic difference between them and other nations,
One of the reason, the Muslims decided to have a seperate country is the exploitation of Hindu. They almost have the same drive like jews .towards making money by any means and manupilation,
INDIA is not and will NOT be a friend of Pakistan, in near future, It is easy to make Indian friends ,But the Indian govt will not let go,It is better to have a stronger Foreign policy against India, we shuld expose them in every International forum.
Mr R. Now the game of Numbers have gone,The millions have no significance, it is technology,which will dictate, who is incharge.
