ASSALAM-O-ALAIKUM!

Muslims once ruled India for 1000 years, and despite there being 560 princely states, even these states were also a part of their government. However, it is undeniably that Indian subcontinent is made up of various different faiths, each having the right to govern their respective areas of majority inhabitance. After British colonization ended, this was the basis for the partition plan.

Kashmir was just one of these areas which was almost exclusively inhabited by a Muslim population. After its initially occupation, India claimed to have entered Kashmir to maintain law and order. After decades of occupation, it has maintained its occupation and attempted to legitimize it by now changing its stance that Kashmir is an integral part. This is in direct contradiction with what the Indian state stands for, as essentially, India is Hindustan.  

The citizens of Kashmir have long before given their verdict under Sardar Ibrahim Khan Ghazi-e-Millat a leader of Muslim Conference on July 19, 1947 that the state of Jammu and Kashmir will constitute as part of Pakistan. As stated above, this is logical as more than 95 % of the population were of the Muslim faith.

It is worth noting, that India maintains its illegal occupation despite the fact that its lack of legality is inscribed in international law. After partition, the whole state of Jammu and Kashmir became a legal part of Pakistan as the India before partition no longer exists. There is now only Hindustan, Pakistan, and Bangladesh etc. As such, the state of Jammu and Kashmir is a rightful part of Pakistan.

The people of Azad Kashmir have been liberated, but they need an identity which is established through constitutional law. It is immoral and unjust to keep the inhabitants of Azad Kashmir without this legal status. This is a prerequisite before Pakistan can put out a claim on Maqbooza Kashmir. India’s ultimate goal is to maintain/establish hegemony over the subcontinent. It has merged the Sikh nation forcibly in order to utilize its people for its immoral cause. India will exert all its efforts in trying to make Kashmir an independent state as soon as it feels it is losing control of it which it eventually will. In this scenario, India still stands to gain as Pakistan will be deprived of 12 million of its citizens a separate proxy state is created. It is better to act now to secure Azad Kashmir rather than expressing regrets afterwards. Pakistan must secure Azad Kashmir by adopting constitutional resolution as its sixth province in order to lay legitimate claim to its legal territory of Maqbooza Kashmir.

Last but not the least, Pakistan will be in not only in a ethically superior position to exert its influence and demand India withdraw its forces; but moreover, it will have solidified in its constitution what is already established in international law via the UN Resolution. How much more atrocities have to take place before the Pakistani state pushes forward and recognizes the necessity of this action? The UN department of Human Rights indicates that the Indian regime and its armed forces to date have murdered more than 203,027 citizens, made 216,219 arrests, 110,352 have disappeared, 116,008 homes have been demolished, leaving 123,107 widows and 207,661 orphans. Enough atrocities have been committed! We must act now.
