Waza while addressing party workers at different areas of Phalgam, appleaded the world organization to help kashmiri people in resolving long pending Kashmir issue on humanitarian grounds. He said that Kashmir was a political dispute, which could be resolved through tripartite talks involving India, Pakistan and the true Kashmiri leadership. He stressed India to create conducive atmosphere for meaningful and result-oriented talks on Kashmir. He said that permanent peace in South Asia was impossible without the settlement of the long-pending dispute over Kashmir. Waza demanded an end to unlawful arrest spree and halt to gross violations of human rights by Indian troops in Kashmir. He said that the world community had recognized Kashmir as a dispute, which should be settled through dialogue process. Waza appealed to the international community, United Nations, OIC and world human rights to impress uponIndia to end human rights violations in Kashmir. He maintained that India’s claim of zero tolerance against rights abuse proved to be a hoax in the backdrop of fake encounters and targeted killing of innocent Kashmiris over the past few months. Waza urged India to stop the rights abuse, withdraw its troops and repeal all black laws from the territory before initiating meaningful talks on Kashmir. He deplored that the occupation authorities had always tried to shield the culprits involved in the killing of innocent Kashmiri people. Waza said that Indian troops had unleashed a reign of terror in Kashmir to suppress Kashmiris’ liberation struggle. “The troopers commit gross rights’ abuses with impunity in Kashmir due to the invocation of draconian laws by occupation authorities,” he added. He said irrespective of any countries support Kashmiri people and especially youths are committed to achieve independence from India at every cost.
