Islamabad: India is continuously violating all international laws and conventions in occupied Jammu and Kashmir where people are even deprived of their basic political, legal and human rights.
A report released by Kashmir Media Service, today, said that the continued brutal Indian occupation have turned IIOJK into a living hell for its residents whose human rights continue to be violated by Indian troops with impunity during so-called cordon and search operations, crackdowns and raids carried out on daily basis in the territory.
It said that in order to advance the nefarious Hindutva agenda of bringing a demographic change in IIOJK, the Modi regime in gross violation of all international laws and conventions was robbing the Kashmiris of their identity and rights, snatching their land and issuing domicile certificates to non-Kashmiris on fast-track basis.
“As part of the policy, the Indian regime, on the Israeli pattern, has built several separate Pandit settlements and soldiers’ colonies in the occupied territory and the process has picked up a pace after Kashmir’s special status was revoked in August 2019”, the report said.
Besides, New Delhi is using brutal tactics like illegal confiscations, forced evictions, attaching properties and dismissing govt employees in IIOJK to strangulate the Kashmiris economically. India is using black laws like Public Safety Act (PSA) and Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) in IIOJK to arrest the Kashmiris, the report added.
The report said that India was preventing the Kashmiris from exercising their universally recognized right to self-determination and is not willing to implement the UN resolutions on Kashmir.
“It is therefore high time for the world to step in and take practical measures for settlement of the Kashmir dispute to save the Kashmiri people from Hindutva’s brutal onslaught unleashed by the Modi regime”, the report said, adding that India must be punished for violating international laws and agreements in IIOJK.
