Moving Movie on Kashmir
I recently watched
the 2014 Indian Hindi movie "Haider" set in Indian occupied Kashmir, directed and
produced by Vishal Bhadwaj. The story is based on the age old theme of love and
treachery, but it depicts quite graphically the hardships of the Kashmiri
people and the atrocities of the Indian army. Alongside repeated suggestions
that political freedom is meaningless without freedom from the obsession of revenge
which has constantly poisoned the communal life in India, it also shows how the
lives of most Kashmiris revolve around the freedom struggle. It clearly shows
the role of the Indian army as an oppressive, cruel and vindictive occupation
force. By projecting the story characters, it also hints that the Muslim
Kashmiri politicians who are participating in the puppet elected government of
Indian occupied Kashmir are committing treachery towards their brethren.
The United Nations Security
Council resolutions no. 47 is copied
below from the UN archives:
Decision of 21 April
1948 (286th meeting): Modification of instruction to the United Nations
Commission for India and Pakistan. On the return of the Indian delegation the
Council continued consideration of the question. The draft resolutions
submitted to the Council eventually were replaced at the 284th meeting on 17
April by a joint draft resolution submitted by the representatives of Belgium,
Canada, China, Colombia, the United Kingdom and the United States, 535
which was voted upon paragraph by paragraph and adopted at the 286th meeting on
21 April 1948.536 The resolution read as follows: 537
“The Security Council,
“Having considered the complaint of the
Government of India concerning the dispute over the State of Jammu and Kashmir,
“Having heard the representative of India in
support of that complaint and the reply and counter complaints of the
representative of Pakistan,
“Being strongly of opinion that the early
restoration of peace and order in Jammu and Kashmir is essential and that India
and Pakistan should do their utmost to bring about a cessation of all fighting,
“Noting with satisfaction that both India and
Pakistan desire that the question of the accession of Jammu and Kashmir to
India or Pakistan should be decided through the democratic method of a free and
impartial plebiscite,
“Considering that
the continuation of the dispute is likely to endanger international peace and
security,
“Reafirms the Council’s resolution of 17 January,
“Resolves that the membership of the
Commission established by the resolution of the Council of 20 January 1948
shall be increased to five and shall include in addition to the membership
mentioned in that resolution, representatives of------ and------, and that if
the membership of the (Commission has not been completed within ten days from
the date of the adoption of this resolution the President of the Council may
designate such other Member or Members of the United Nations as are required to
complete the membership of five;
“Instructs the Commission to proceed at once
to the Indian sub-continent and there place its good offices and mediation at
the disposal of the Governments of India and Pakistan with a view to
facilitating the taking of the necessary measures, both with respect to the
restoration of peace and order and to the holding of a plebiscite, by the two
Governments, acting in co-operation with one another and with the Commission,
and further instructs the Commission to keep the Council informed of the action
taken under the resolution, and to this end, ……”
India has been
postponing that plebiscite for the last 68 years on a series of inordinate
excuses and started wars with Pakistan when pushed to the limit. The situation now is totally acceptable for anyone with even a modicum of humanity.
The Indian leaders
need to realize that the Plebiscite in Kashmir will not be their defeat, but
the triumph of the principles of democracy and human rights which they claim to
cherish and will free Kashmiris, Indians and Pakistanis alike from the bondage
of revenge.

Indians in Kashmir
Here is another picture from Kashmir showing Indian policemen beating up unarmed ladies with batons. Similar pictures of Taliban were used by the Americans as valid excuse for invading Afghanistan.
Are Kashmiris barred from fundamental human rights? Or are the Indians exempt from all international laws?
Can the western world shed its anti-Muslim prejudices and speak up against such barbarism?
Here are some more images of Indian atrocities that speak for themselves:
