Actions that the Pakistani Government needs to take to assist the Kashmir Struggle (JR211)


Actions that the Pakistani Government needs to take to assist the Kashmir Struggle (JR 211)

-          China: encourage China to go beyond their usual position on Kashmir, as they are, in fact, a direct party to the dispute.
-          UNHRC: document and register (with supporting evidence) a daily or weekly or monthly report on fresh human rights violations by Indians in the Indian Occupied Kashmir. Perhaps the Kashmir committee web site should be updated on a daily basis
-          Media support: provide support to media accounts that are threatened by the Indian State and media persons, on Face Book, Twitter etc.
-          ICJ: Seek expert professional opinion on possibility of taking, privately by Kashmiri Diaspora, same aspect of the Kashmir issue including human right violations, to International Court of Justice ( ICJ ). .
-         UNGA vote:   lobby to get the UNGA to vote for obtaining an advisory opinion from the International Court of Justice on the Kashmir liberation movement.
-          Increased diplomatic activity:  more concerted efforts by Pakistan’s diplomatic apparatus in various capitals around the world.
-          Target Nobel Laureates: Pakistan to mobilize its envoys in countries where Nobel laureates reside. “The Nobel laureates need to smell the gunpowder in the streets of Kashmir,”
-          Special envoy : appointing a special envoy on Jammu and Kashmir to sensitize global leaders on the Kashmir dispute
-          Relocate Pakistan Commissioner: transfer Pakistan’s high commissioner designate for India to somewhere else to dispel the impression in Delhi that ties will revert to status quo
-          Air space: close Pakistani airspace to Indian airlines.
-          Target people: Pakistan government should shift its focus from other countries’ governments to their civil society. This would entail engaging their media and civil society organizations as well as the Pakistani diasporas to change public perceptions.
-          Concentrate on the Kashmiri people: Pakistan’s approach to the dispute must be Kashmiri people-centric  


-          ICJ: Feb., 26, 2020: A former chief justice  has suggested Pakistan to approach the International Court of Justice (ICJ) regarding the continuing rights violations in Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir. Retired Justice Ali Nawaz Chowhan, according to a statement issued by the Srinagar-based Legal Forum for Oppressed Voices of Kashmir (LFOVK) on Saturday, said Pakistan being an important party to the long-standing dispute should approach the UN court.  https://www.aa.com.tr/en/asia-pacific/pakistan-should-take-kashmir-issue-to-intl-court/1742287
