Panun Kashmir criticizes Amnesty International | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT JAMMU, May 24: Panun Kashmir has maintained that the first visit of Amnesty International has been a totally disappointment experience for the Hindu community of Kashmir. The way Amnesty International has conducted itself during their recent visit of Kashmir valley has given an ample demonstration that their visit has been guided more by political considerations than any concern for human rights. Addressing the press conference, S K Handoo stated that Amnesty International for a long time has been serving a state specific agenda and has cared little for assessing, evaluation and commenting on the role of non-state actors in committing human rights violations and unleashing genocidal wars in the territories of their influence and control. By deliberately choosing to ignore the involvement of non- state actors Amnesty International has eventually served only the cause of those who are leading relentless campaigns of religious and ethnic cleansing and are destroying the plural texture of societies. Amnesty International during its maiden visit conveniently chose to side track the issue of religious cleansing of Kashmiri Hindus, as it has over the years chosen to ignore the genocide of Hindus living in Pakistan and Bangladesh and Hindus of Pak Occupied Kashmir. The first priority for any human rights organizations visiting the state should be to meet these people. For Amnesty International despicably it has never been a priority. Outraging the sensitivities of victims of religious cleansing Amnesty International sought the audience and cooperation of separatist leaders such as Ali Shah Geelani and Yasin Malik. He further stated that the human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir are a whole process of excesses and oppression for which the religious wars, ideological states and war groups waging Jihad are responsible. If the Amnesty International refuses to recognize the real content and character of the human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir and seek to politicize resistance against the Jihad and international terrorism, it is actually trying to put the human rights movement upside down. Panun Kashmir also strongly disapproves the action of union government to allow the Amnesty International to visit Kashmir after having rightly denied it the permission to do so far last two decades.
