Despite the fact that the Kashmiri people have been practically imprisoned for the last seven years after the constitutional amendment declaring Occupied Kashmir as part of India outright illegitimate, the Modi government has not only failed to crush their spirit of independence. These circumstances have forced even the pro-India Kashmiri leaders to say that due to the policies of the Modi government, the Kashmiri youth have no choice but to take up arms against the usurper India. Former Chief Minister of Occupied Kashmir Mehbooba Mufti has recently expressed this position in unambiguous words while talking to the media. He said that the Modi government would have to return everything snatched from Kashmiris, including the restoration of Article 370 of the Constitution. A spectacular demonstration of the courage and determination with which the Kashmiri youth are working to thwart the Modi government’s aggressive measures took place on the night between the 7th and 8th of this month. According to the Pakistan Army Public Relations Department, the Indian Army clashed with some militants in Kupwara district of occupied Jammu and Kashmir in which it suffered heavy losses and four of its soldiers were killed.

In order to remove the embarrassment of the defeat I had to endure, he on Friday indiscriminately shelled various sectors of the Line of Control (LoC) with heavy weapons without provocation, killing a young man and four civilians of the Pakistan Army. The provocation was met with a full response and Indian posts targeting innocent civilians were effectively targeted. As a result, the Indian Army suffered heavy loss of life and property, which was also acknowledged by the Indian media. According to a Pakistan Army spokesman, such cowardly acts of targeting innocent civilians reflect the lack of morale, highly unprofessional behavior and gross disregard for human rights in the Indian Army since the 2003 ceasefire. There is also a clear violation of the agreement. The Pakistan Army spokesman clarified that Pakistan is a peace loving country but the Pakistan Army is committed to defending the motherland and Kashmiri brothers. He said that we assure that such provocations will be responded to in the future as well. The Pakistani Foreign Office also summoned the Indian charge d’affaires and recorded a protest against the ceasefire violations. However, ceasefire violations are a daily occurrence in India. This year, the number has risen to 2,737. Dozens of innocent civilians have been killed and hundreds injured. Tensions between South Asia’s nuclear powers could escalate into regular war at any time, despite the fact that it is an open fact. The catastrophe will not be limited to the two countries, but will affect a large part of the world, directly or indirectly. Therefore, it is in the interest of the world powers to oblige India to implement Article 370 to implement the UN resolutions in order to give Kashmiris the right to self-determination and then to hold a referendum under UNO for world peace. Finalize this permanent threat. In particular, US President-elect Joe Biden must make resolving the Kashmir dispute one of his top priorities and ensure rapid progress in this direction in order to make his assurances for world peace a reality.
