Unified Kashmir Indian, Israeli and US ploy: Syed Munawar Hasan Lahore, Nov 25: Jamaat-e-Islami’s Secretary General Syed Munawar Hasan has said handing over of relief operation to the civil administration of Azad Kashmir and NWFP latest by Nov 30 speaks of failure on the part of military regime. “The situation warrants that government should evolve coordination strategy with the help of workers of political parties and NGO providing relief help in the quake-hit areas. The proposal of Unified Kashmir is joint ploy of India; Israel and America to liquidate Kashmir issue. “Pakistani nation would not allow the ruler to depart from the principled stance on Kashmir.” He was addressing a press conference in Islamabad on Saturday after his return from the visit of quake-hit areas in the NWFP and Azad Kashmir. Replying to reporters’ questions, he condemned the reiteration of the proposal seeking to demilitarize LoC and self rule in Kashmir by Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz and said notwithstanding such proposals from Islamabad; New Delhi had charged Pakistan for cross border terrorism which amounts to abuse of entire nation. “Prime Minister should give a second thought to his reiteration after this sheer disgust by India.” Syed Munawar Hasan said the government should come forward and evolve a coordinated relief strategy by engaging NGOs and relief workers of political parties whose majority belongs to affected areas. People, he said, are not happy with the performance of armed forces in relief operation. This could be judge from the fact that the relief commissioner did not visit Azad Kashmir as yet. His talks with NWFP government were limited to office visits so far. Major General Farooq is accountable to his appointing authority, i.e. General Musharraf. Prime Minister has nothing to do with his work and performance. In a parliamentary system, elected House enjoys veto power and army acts as subservient to the parliament. He blasted Kashmiri leaders Sardar Abdul Qayyum and Mir Waiz Umer Farooq for furthering agenda on Unified Kashmir. They are speaking the mind of colonial powers who had betrayed Palestinians by with the farce of a Palestinian state and now out to repeat the same tale in Kashmir. He said India, Israel and America are exploiting the troubled time of Kashmiris after the Oct 8 for their own benefits. He said donors’ conference was another start of debt based economy. |
