- We condemn the BJP government in New Delhi and its collaborators in Indian occupied Kashmir for their designs to:
- Tarnish the identity of Kashmiris and the Muslim character of Jammu and Kashmir.
- Continuously violate the human rights of the people of Kashmir to intimidate them into submission.
- Setup separate townships for Pandits and create state within a state in Kashmir Valley on the Israeli pattern.
- Undermine the Kashmiris’ freedom struggle by creating a new stakeholder in the form of Pandits.
- Settle non Kashmiris including West Pakistan migrants in Jammu and Kashmir with an aim to change its demography.
