The Central Shoora of the Jamaat-e-Islami, Pakistan has expressed complete solidarity
with the oppressed Kashmiri people and demanded immediate withdrawal of
the Indian occupation troops from Held Kashmir.
A resolution adopted by the Shoora at its meeting said that the
division of the Indo-Pak sub continent would remain incomplete till the
end of India’s occupation in Kashmir and the grant of the right to self
determination to the Kashmiri people.
It said that for the last 63 years, the Indian government had been
claiming Held Kashmir as integral part of India while the fact remained
that over 7 lakh Indian army in Held Kashmir had failed to crush
Kashmiris’ freedom struggle and added that even the Indian politicians,
journalists and analysts were now counseling New Indian rulers to heed
to the Kashmiris’ demands and resolve the issue.
The Shoora demanded of the Pakistan government to learn from its
past mistakes and fulfill its responsibilities in regard to the
country’s jugular line. It pointed out the Kashmir issue could not be
resolved through India-Pakistan talks. It counseled Islamabad to seek
Muslim world’s support on the issue and pressurize New Delhi for its
solution.
The Shoora also impressed upon the world community to take immediate
step for plebiscite in Kashmir in line with the UN resolution on the
pattern of East Taimur and South Sudan.
The JI central body deplored the rigging and disturbances during
Azad Kashmir elections and said this had sent a negative signal to the
world community as also the Kashmiris.
Through a resolution on Palestine, the Shoora lauded the
rapprochement between two major Palestinian parties, HAMAS and Al-Fath.
It noted that the Hamas-Al-Fateh agreement was the result of the end of
pro-Zionist rule in Egypt. It said, the US and Israel were pressurizing
Al-Fath to go back on this agreement. The JI body appealed to the
Palestinian people not to fall prey to the enemy plans in this respect.
The Shoora condemned the silence of the world community on the siege
of Gaza continuing for the third year and said that the so called
champions of human rights and civil liberties in the west were equally
responsible for the deaths on the people under siege in Gaza. SANA
