  1. Hi slaman Mugsi,
    this is not the first time valey politicians are doing it.
    The people of kashmir hate india but they have told the world that they prefer DEMOCRACY

  2. i think now we should take care of our own pakistani flag, instead of getting happy on burnt flag of others. we must make ourself strong first…not military wise…economically and socially.

  3. This only strengthens our resolve to maintain indian rule in kashmir FOREVER…………….COME WHAT MAY…………

  4. Johann,
    You still living in delusion by calling this act as done by valley politicians. You guys are so much blind that you could not see what actually Kashmiris wanted from India for last 60 years

    This is awful! how shamelessly you are talking about democracy when you can’t give Kashmiris their birth right of self determination which your great leader Nehru promised to Kashmiris acoording to the UN Resolutions of 1948, which is still in persists in UN Charter.

    an indian
    Try to learn the lesson from the history.

    KAC Submits Memorandum to UN on Kashmir

    August 22, 2008

    His Excellency

    Mr. Ban Ki-Moon

    Secretary General

    The United Nations

    New York, NY � 10017.

    Excellency:

    On behalf of the people of Jammu & Kashmir, we take this opportunity to draw your kind attention to the following:

    The Kashmir issue has been pending on the agenda of the Security Council since 1948. At that point, an agreement took place between India and Pakistan, endorsed by the United Nations and supported by the international community that guaranteeing the right to self-determination to the people of Jammu & Kashmir. The people of Kashmir who have never lost hope in the United Nations have since that date sought to freely exercise their right to self-determination. This denial of the United Nation Charter and thus the denial of the right of self-determination has lead to bloodshed, pain, rapine and suffering in Kashmir.

    As a result of India’s reign of terror, Kashmir that was once considered a virtual paradise on earth has been reduced to a killing field. This sanguine situation has only been accentuated since the July 2008 when the monumental peaceful protests throughout Kashmir, bringing together hundreds of thousands of people from all racial and cultural backgrounds, began as a response to the Indian Government’s attempt at confiscating 100 acres of Kashmiri territory for Indian settlements, the recent gruesome unearthing of 4600 mass graves � to which the European Union has passed a unanimous resolution, and desperate Indian dismissal of Kashmiri aspirations for self-determination. The powerful protests resulted in a magnificent revolt forcing Indians to meekly withdraw and rescind their erstwhile theft of Kashmiri land.

    The rescinding of the land-grab by Indians resulted in the immoral and inhumane closure of the main highways into occupied Kashmir, Pathankot-Jammu and Jammu-Srinagar, by the Indian authorities in collusion with Hindu fanatics � Bhartiya Janata Party & Rashtriya Sewak Sangh. The result was crippling for Kashmiri civil society and coerced them to seek alternative trade routes to secure their basic necessities of life. Undeterred and forever vigilant, Kashmiri men, women and children, in exercise of their democratic right for peaceful congregation, came on the streets in tens of thousands to express their sentiments toward the right of self-determination. Without provocation, the Indian soldiers opened indiscriminate fire killing more than 30 Kashmiri civilians including senior Hurriyet leader Sheikh Abdul Aziz. The bloodshed continues.

    The people of Kashmir still continue to hope in the United Nations. They see it working, they see it enforcing Security Council resolutions, they see the United Nations taking leadership roles in various trouble spots of the world. The people of Kashmir believe that the time has come that Your Excellency use your good office to: let India and Pakistan know that if talks between these two countries are to mean anything, they must be accompanied by practical measures to restore an environment of non-violence, free from state terrorism. If a response to the gravity of the situation is intended, we firmly believe that the following measures are essential:

    1. There must be an immediate and complete cessation of military and paramilitary action by Indian forces against the people of Jammu & Kashmir;

    2. All bunkers, watch towers and barricades set up by the Indian military and paramilitary forces in towns and villages must be immediately dismantled;

    3. All those imprisoned in connection with resistance to the Indian occupation must be immediately and unconditionally released;

    4. The draconian laws must be repealed immediately;

    5. The right of peaceful association, assembly and demonstration must be restored to the people.

    We appeal to you, Excellency, to intervene in the situation in Kashmir under the Article 91 of the United Nations Charter. It is because, first, atrocities continue to give aid and comfort to India. During the past two months, the international inaction and seeming unconcern in the face of massive violations of human rights and particularly the economic blockade has gained a new sinister dimension.

    We place the trust in the statesmanship of the Excellency, as the Secretary General of the United Nations that you will not countenance any attempt to ignore the wishes of the people of the State of Jammu and Kashmir and bypass the expression of those wishes.

    We trust that your personal involvement in this matter will bring its influence to bear on both India and Pakistan to initiate a peace with which the United Nations as well as the people of Jammu & Kashmir will be associated so as to ensure that settlement arrived at will be based on the principles of justice.

    With profound regards,

    Yours sincerely,

  5. Mr.Aashique of musharaff,

    Kindly read PART 2 of the UN RESOLUTION on kashmir………….

    PAKISTAN did NONE of the following at 1948.

    PART II

    TRUCE AGREEMENT

    Simultaneously with the acceptance of the proposal for the immediate cessation of hostilities as outlined in Part I, both Governments accept the following principles as a basis for the formulation of a truce agreement, the details of which shall be worked out in discussion between their Representatives and the Commission.

    1. (l) As the presence of troops of Pakistan in the territory of the State of Jammu and Kashmir constitutes a material change in the situation since it was represented by the Government of Pakistan before the Security Council, the Government of Pakistan agrees to withdraw its troops from that State.

    Question1.Did the Government of Pakistan removed its forces from Kashmir as per UN Resolution of 1948?

    (2) The Government of Pakistan will use its best endeavor to secure the withdrawal from the State of Jammu and Kashmir of tribesmen and Pakistan nationals not normally resident therein who have entered the State for the purpose of fighting.

    Question 2.So The UN agreed that pashtun tribals who were not a part of kashmir were fighting along with army regulars.Do u agree?

    (3) Pending a final solution the territory evacuated by the Pakistan troops will be administered by the local authorities under the surveillance of the Commission.

    Question 3.When the UN commission decided that Indian forces are to be kept to maintain minimum law and order did Pakistan vacate POK or Azad Kashmir as per insrtuctions of the United Nations?

    The UN RESOLUTION had three parts……..

    PART 1…………….CEASE-FIRE ORDER(thus LOC was created)

    PART2……………..TRUCE AGREEMENT(removal of pakistani tribesmen and troops)

    PART3……………..PLEBISITE………….

    Now read PART 3………………

    PART III

    The Government of India and the Government of Pakistan reaffirm their wish that the future status of the State of Jammu and Kashmir shall be determined in accordance with the will of the people and to that end, UPON ACCEPTANCE OF THE TRUCE AGREEMENT* both Governments agree to enter into consultations with the Commission to determine fair and equitable conditions whereby such free expression will be assured.

    *pakistan DID NOT accept the truce agreement……….hence PLEBISITE was SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE………

    http://www.kashmiri-cc.ca/un/sc13aug48.htm

    This proves PAKISTAN is RESPONSIBLE for current kashmir problem…………..

  6. As far as letters to UN general secretary goes…….NOTHING NEW in those letters and they were repeated time and again in last 60 years………..anyway who cares whats written to UN general secretary………

  7. indian,
    it is not so simple, I have never seen a map on any international Atlas or read a news article on international news (regarding Kashmir) where it is not mentioned that “Kashmir, a disputed territory between india and Pakistan”

    Now, your intellectuals have started realising this ground reality so you guys should come out from the well you are living in and accept the universal truth.

  8. Burning a flag may become a news but it is not a good gesture.

  9. certainly…and it shows nothing but only the frustration of unable to do anything…

  10. anyway
    Kashmir is the part of Hindustan
    if u like the pakistan u should b leave our nation. u hv’nt any right to stay on this land.
    brunt case of tirnga will b very dangerious 4 enemy of my nation.
