Concern over Kashmir
February 20, 2021
As diplomats from around two dozen countries complete a visit to Occupied Kashmir, two UN rapporteurs on belief and minorities have expressed their concern over the situation in Kashmir and new laws which infringe on the rights and liberties of Kashmiris. In August 2019, India had revoked the constitution and taken away the special status given to the Occupied State of Jammu and Kashmir, which had remained disputed at the time of partition in 1947. Apart from this, new domicile laws were put in place as well as laws which determine the purchase of land inside the occupied areas of Kashmir. Previously, no non-Kashmiri could buy land in the Valley, a move intended to protect the area from attempts at demographic change.

Analysing official versions

On a TV talk show recently, in which I was appearing as an analyst, nearly all speakers were unanimous that the 27th UN monitoring report exposed India as a country that had been supporting terrorist activities in Pakistan.
Before going into the details of the report, we must note that both print and electronic media in India are much more jingoistic and nationalist in tone and tenor than in Pakistan; the arrogance and one-sided portrayal of claims and events remains unsurpassed in India. They do not waste a single minute in blaming Pakistan for hatching conspiracies against each other. Indian anchors such as Arnab Goswami are also chauvinists and ultra-patriots pining for the blood of their purported enemies.
