If Modi is sincere, let him deliver justice to
Kashmir people: Geelani
Chairman All Parties Hurriyat Conference, Syed Ali Geelani
Sunday said if India's would be prime minister Narendra Modi's claims of
'justice for Kashmir were true' then 'it will be an act of welfare for the
Indian as well'.
The APHC chairman said that though the birth year of Modi is
1950, but he will be aware of the tragedy of 1947 when only 72 days after the
liberation of India and Pakistan from the forced occupation of Britain, New
Delhi landed its troops in Jammu and Kashmir and forcibly enslaved the
comparatively weak and unarmed people .
"Then India itself took this issue to UN where this
international body also termed the occupation of Jammu and Kashmir as injustice
and advocated that right to self-determination of the people of Jammu and
Kashmir," he said.
"Indian rulers and its first Prime Minister himself have
promised the Kashmir people in parliament and in Lal Chowk Srinagar that “India
will not hold Kashmir forcibly with it and when situation will improve, Kashmir
people will be given a chance to decide their future, which will be respected
in any way. If Kashmir people will not decide to remain with India then it will
be definitely painful for me, but we do not favour forced marriages,” he
reminded Modi.
Geelani said that India has done injustice with the people of
Kashmir by not fulfilling their promises and if future Prime Minister of India
Modi is sincere about his promise of doing justice, then he should undertake to
fulfill the broken promises and Kashmir should be given a chance to choose
their future by holding plebiscite in this state.
APHC chairman said that Modi expressed his sorrow for not
contributing to the freedom movement of India, but he has a chance to
understand the freedom movement of Kashmir in its real perspective and give
them their right to self-determination.
"Indian judiciary has also miserably failed in providing
justice to the oppressed people of Kashmir," he said and added: if Modi is
really serious in his promise of justice then first of all he should at least
accept the injustice done with Kashmir people and then try to eliminate these
injustices.
Modi had said in his statement that ‘the new government will
take decisions according to the wishes and aspiration of people’. "But
time is the best judge, he said, adding: Kashmir people are in no way enemies
of India or its people but they want that justice should be done with them and
their rights should be respected.
