PK Chief Agnishekhar warns GOI against blackmail in Kashmir
8/5/2010 9:48:29 PM
EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU , Aug 5: Expressing serious concern over the implications of the prevailing situation in Kashmir valley, attacks on security forces, police stations, targeting houses of the minority community, sacrilege of the Sikh sentiments, attack on Non-Kashmiri drivers and Amarnath Yatris, Panun Kashmir Convener urged GOI that the situation in the Valley demands strong intervention as is expected of an assertive nation-state.
In the national executive meeting of PK he observed that the GoI’s continued policy of appeasement has always emboldened separatists and secessionists and their apologists in the Kashmir valley. Giving undue credence to such forces and ignoring the vast majority public opinion of the state which rejects secessionism and treats accession of the state with India as final and complete, has resulted in the present turmoil.
Dr. Agnishekhar opined that GOI should not downplay the geo-political urges and aspiration of the displaced Kashmiri Hindus, people of Jammu and Ladakh anymore. It is high time world community should know that unlike the separatists and jihadi forces of Kashmir, the Seven lakh displaced Kashmiri Pandits demand creation of Union territory inside Kashmir Valley with free flow of Indian constitution. It’s also imperative that the demand of people of Jammu for separate statehood and Union territory for the people of Ladakh be acknowledged and taken into serious considerations when any such solution of Kashmir issue is going to be worked out. Thus the reorganization of the J&K state will pave way for tiding over the problem permanently.
The present ad hoc approach of GOI in addressing Kashmir Issue is fraught with dangers of further emboldening the separatists who rule the roost by defying the law and order, raising anti-India and jehadi slogans as loud as they can. Its high time GOI should henceforth stop buckling under pressure and blackmail tactics of elements like Hurriyat and other separatist organizations. GOI should reject the Hurriyat’s preconditions for resumption of dialogue like declaring J&K as a disputed state and withdrawal of AFSPA and demilitarization.
Dr. Agnishekhar observed that signals emanating from corridors of power in New Delhi amply suggest that once peace and order are restored it would come out with some political dispensation. PK forewarned the GOI and state government that any such “out of box” political dispensation including economic and rehabilitation packages for stone-throwers, ex-militants, and surrendered-militants will boost the separatists and will prove disastrous to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country.
Dr. Agnishekhar appealed to the opinion makers and the political leadership of Jammu and Ladakh to forge unity of political perception and raise their voice with vehemence at this crucial stage of history.
