Ameer Jamaat e Islami, Pakistan, Syed Munawar Hasan, has said that any solution of the Kashmir issue on the pattern of Ireland or Scotland won't be acceptable and the issue must be resolved by granting the Kashmiris the right of self determination ensured by the UN resolutions.
Commenting on the statement of the Indian Foreign Minister in the British parliament in this respect, he said that any such Indian attempt won't be successful. He said that eight lakh Indian troops deployed in Held Kashmir had taken the valley a hostage while the Kashmiris had been struggling for freedom from Indian hold and would never accept any move that denied them the right of self determination.
Syed Munawar Hasan said that India had pledged before the world community 65 years ago to afford the Kashmiris the right of self determination. New Delhi had promised referendum to seek the opinion of the Kashmiri whether they wanted to join India or Pakistan. However, he said, the Indian government had been dilly dallying in this regard and later started saying that Kashmir was an integral part of India. He said that India had failed to honour its commitment in the UN. Scores of memorandums were presented on the Kashmir issue but to no avail simply became the UN was acting as the slave of the US, India and Israel.
The JI chief said that millions of the Muslims of Palestine and Kashmir were tolerating the worst form of oppression and tyranny at the hands of Zionists and Hindus while hundreds of resolutions adopted by the international Human Rights body and the Amnesty International were trying to arouse the world conscience, but the bias of the world community towards the Muslims stood in the way of the solution of these issues. However, he warned that if the world community did not attend to the Kashmir issue immediately, a nuclear war could erupt in South Asia any time as both India and Pakistan were nuclear powers.
Syed Munawar Hasan also deplored the statement of the Defence Minister that if the talks with the Taliban did not succeed, "there would be a march in March". He wondered why the Defence Minister was talking of the talks' failure when he should give a hope to the nation by issuing statements of the talks' success. He said instead, the Defence Minister should have apprised the nation of the US-India-Israel collusion against Pakistan's solidarity and independence and their conspiracies and given true facts.
Referring to the reduction in the jail term of CIA spy Shakil Afridi under US pressure, he deplored that no one was talking about the release of Dr Aafia Siddiqui.
