Article 370 Revoked - J-K split into union 2 territories - Page 39

I don't understand why instead of just pretending that they haven't killed anyone, the Indian side would actually try not to kill anyone. There are plenty of innocent people just trying to go about their daily lives, without political agendas, the problem is that they have not been spared either for the past 30 years. Rather, there is a big misuse of power and use of excessive force on unarmed civillians. If the human rights violations could be avoided at least, it would be good because it's unnecessary to punish the general population. As for the current situation, I don't see why peaceful protesters are being targeted also. Even the seperatist political movements could be allowed in the democratic process. The fact that the armed forces haven't restrained themselves to fighting the militants and stone-pelters only but inflicting brutalities indiscriminately has only made the insurgency worse. BJP should also allow space for the ordinary people to manoeuvre instead of clamping down too hard on them unnecessarily. The articles have been revoked as per the wishes of the government, now they should allow for a peaceful backlash that is expected and not add to inflaming the situation by enabling atrocities. Also, having a political will or agenda should not be a crime (even if it is a Pak-sponsored one) in a democracy. The crime was militancy but the military oppression of locals for the past three decades has not worked. It strengthened the rebellion. Actually, the human rights situation has been so bad India might not be able to provide justice or fix it so while the world is now watching, should the U.N. be allowed to intervene?

Key Highlights

• OHCHR in a report highlighted cases of enforced disappearances in PoK
• Human Rights Committee said rights violations worse in PoK than Kashmir
• Pakistani intelligence agencies were blamed for human rights violations

Islamabad: At a time when Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan is trying to ratchet up the Kashmir issue globally and alleged human rights violations, a UN report has warned that such violations in Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK) are far graver and “more structural in nature”.

The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in a report made several recommendations to the Pakistani authorities to address the concerns related to these violations in the region.

The Government of Pakistan in response to the 2018 OHCHR report said the constitutional and legal structures in PoK and Gilgit-Baltistan protect the rights of its citizens. The OHCHR, also known commonly as the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, found that the concerns around human rights violations remain.

The report highlighted that the UN body had credible information of enforced disappearances of people from PoK, prisoners held in secret detentions and those who remain unaccounted for.

The report said that the victims of enforced disappearances include personnel of the Pakistani security forces and alleged operatives of the armed groups which previously operated in Kashmir. Those subjected to disappearances also include people from areas close to the Line of Control (LoC) under the control of Pakistan armed forces.

The victims whose cases were highlighted in the Human Rights Committee report blamed Pakistan intelligence agencies including the infamous Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). Rights groups fear that those made to disappear from the PoK might be held illegally in military-run internment camps in Pakistan.

RELATED NEWS:

The OHCHR stated that although the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) does not use the word “enforced disappearances”, it refers to a series of acts representing a continued violation of various right as enshrined in the Covenant.

Not just PoK, there have been several reports of such disappearances from Pakistan's Balochistan province. Earlier, to highlight the plight of Baloch activists being killed by the Pakistani regime, human rights activists from the World Baloch Organisation and the Baloch Republican Party carried out a campaign to highlight the worsening human rights situation in the province. Thousands of political activists, suspected armed separatists and people calling for the freedom of Balochistan have disappeared without a trace in Pakistan's restive province in the past decade.

The OHCHR is a department of the UN that works for the promotion of human rights guaranteed under international law and stipulated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948.

Jim Mattis on Pakistan: Most dangerous country I have dealt withPTI | Updated: Sep 4, 2019, 21:47 IST

HIGHLIGHTS

• Mattis said that the "radicalisation" of society and the country's fastest-growing nuclear arsenal make Pakistan dangerous
• By the way, that is also the view of members of the Pakistan military. They realise what they've got going on there. They recognise it: Mattis

NEW YORK: Former US

secretary of defence

Jim Mattis considers

Pakistan

to be the most dangerous of all the countries he has dealt with, blaming it on the "radicalisation" of its society and the country's fastest-growing nuclear arsenal.

Mattis was speaking at an event on Tuesday at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). He has co-authored the just released book ‘Call Sign Chaos: Learning to Lead'.

CFR President Richard Haass referred to a portion of the book in which Mattis talks about Pakistan, saying “Of all the countries I have dealt with, I consider Pakistan to be the most dangerous.”

When asked by Haass why he believes Pakistan is the most dangerous, Mattis said, "The radicalisation of their society. By the way, that is also the view of members of the Pakistan military. They realise what they've got going on there. They recognise it. It's a very twisted relationship between Pakistan and us.

"But when you take the radicalisation of the society and you add to it the fastest-growing nuclear arsenal I think in the world, you see why one of the points I would make that we need to focus on right now is arms control and nonproliferation efforts. This is a much worse problem, I think, than anyone's writing about today," he said.

Mattis has previously commanded troops in the Persian Gulf,

Afghanistan

, Iraq and had headed up Central Command.

Answering a question on China, Mattis said the US can find a way to work with China, "but we are going to have to confront China where they are interrupting the universal or the order—the orders of the world where freedom of navigation and all.”

He added that he is “convinced we can find a way to work with China and for there to be peace.

"There doesn't — there are a lot of decisions to be taken, but it's going to take — it's going to take alliances, again. They are trying to gain a veto authority over their neighbours' diplomatic, economic, and security interests. That we have to recognise. They're piling massive debt, as Prime Minister Modi has pointed out, on other nations, and then when those nations can't service the debt they take sovereignty, like over the port in Sri Lanka,” he said, a reference to Beijing's ambitious Belt and Road Initiative
