Jammu, June 20: Panun Kashmir organized a seminar on "The topic of seminar was Jammu, Kashmir, Jehad, Genocide, the refugee crisis since 1947" the occasion of world refugee day, here on Sunday. Prof. Hari OM, Convener, Jammu for India, Yuvraj Gupta, eminent social worker and POJK leader, Rashpal Singh Chib, President, POJK Displaced Persons Front, Labha Ram Gandhi, President, West Pakistan Refugees Action Front, Dr. Agnishekhar, Convener Panun Kashmir and Dr. Ajay Chrungoo, Chairman, Panun Kashmir spoke on the occasion. During the course of discussions it emerged that "Autonomy & Self-Rule", which is the defining politics of the Kashmir centric political parties and demand for "Freedom or Pakistan" by the separatist constituency in Jammu and Kashmir are primarily a reflection of the Kashmiri Muslims' intent at the exclusivity of an Islamic State. When Muslim refugees from China and Tibet are quickly absorbed and bestowed citizenship and basic rights, and the Hindu Refugees shown ambivalence while decrying their absorption in State as a demographic assault, it's again the foreplay of the Jehadist mindset, which seeks well-being and protection of the Ummah and destruction and deprivation of the "other". The participants also expressed that the State of Jammu & Kashmir is Jihadi which is on way to become an Islamic State. It follows the Jihadic principle of demographic assault, cultural invasion and squeeze on minorities. Hindus, Sikhs, Budists and other minority groups in the State are victims of this Jehadist syndrome. Hence, to expect Justice for the Hindu Refugees from such an Islamist- Jehadi state would be a far cry from truth. The participants resolved that organizations of Hindu Refugees of 1947 to 1990, including Panun Kashmir should close ranks and work out a strategy to get justice. The participants also concluded that they are the victims of an ideological movement, which seeks the destruction of the "other", the "non-believer" and his permanent inferiorization. The participants felt that the Hindu Refugees should have to use all such means and instrumentalities, which put their case in a perspective and in an internationally recognized frame-work. It was also decided that the Hindu Refugees shall have to challenge all such euphemism and policies of the State that have kept them embroiled in a situation of confusion and helplessness for almost seventy years. |
