ABOUT J&K INTERLOCUTORS REPORT

A. Report of Interlocutors on J&K by Union Govt. is not the outcome of the interactions

with more than 700 delegations, three RTCs, mass meetings conducted by them while

visiting all the 22 districts, but this is a report as Union Govt. and State Govt. required

on the name of consensus of people and stake holders of state. This is addressed onlyto the separatist mindset of J&K which is in minority in the state by the confused,

ignorant and compromising attitude of Bharat.

Basis of their thinking in last 64 years are misconceptions that they have proposed for

themselves. These ill conceived propositions are-

1. Jammu-Kashmir is a unique state having unique Geography, unique

History and unique problems. When problem is unique then solution

should also be unique. Jammu-Kashmir state is not like all other states

of Bharat.

2. Jammu-Kashmir is Kashmir. Kashmir voice is the real will of people of

state that is exhibited by NC, PDP and Hurriyat

3. Due to Muslim majority J&K state, it should be given special treatment.

4. Accession was conditional, there were some pre-conditions.

5. Article 370 ensues J&K state some sort of Autonomy as well as special

status. Article 370 gives state a dual character.

6. Article 370 is not procedural mechanism but basis of relationship

between centre and Jammu & Kashmir. Delhi Accord should be the

basis of final resolution.

7. Jammu & Kashmir is a dispute between Bharat and Pakistan.

8. Kashmir has its own identity that is Kashmiriyat.

9. Jammu Kashmir people are not like people of rest of Bharat but have

dual status.

10. Parliament and Union institutions should have limited application on

J&K states and so also on confirmation to the wishes of Kashmir.

B. In their report Interlocutors are making fools of the nation:

1. According to them they does not recommend Pre-1953, but call for

reviewal of all Union acts and laws extended to state after 1952 and

further recommends that this reviewal should be on the basis proposed

by them considering. Dual character of J&K state, Dual status of people

of J&K and Delhi Accord, 1952, as basis of centre state relationship.

They talks about 1994 resolution of Parliament on J&K but call POK as

Pak administered Kashmir, accepts Hurriyats pre-condition for solution

that Bharat Pakistan and both regions of J&K should be accepted as

stake holders. They signified importance of J&K as a bridge between

central Asia and South Asia. In their approach, Bharat is South Asia and

Jammu-Kashmir is a bridge not gateway of Bharat to rest of the world or

Mastak (head) of the Bharat Mata. The resolution revolves around much

talked Manmohan Musharaf Pact in Track II diplomacy of 2006, agreed

for Joint control, shared sovereignity, demilitarization, porous irrelevant

borders, maximum possible autonomy to both of the regions. Reports of

working groups made by PM in 2006 also have recommendations on the

above lines, these are again toed by interlocutors.

C. Interlocutors terms Article 370 a special status provided to J&K state in our

constitution, but at same time recommends the word Temporary mentioned in title of

Article 370 to be deleted and further replaced by word Special. They recommend

Article 370 to be made permanent and also call that no further Parliament laws,

amendments should be extended to J&K state other than internal security or security

and vital economic issues.

D. They accepts sense of deprivation, discrimination in Jammu and Ladakh, but does not

call for Delimitation of Assembly and Parliament seats to end manipulated dominationof Kashmir in states politics. They even does not accepts people of Jammu, Ladakh,

different groups of refugees as stake holder in final resolution.

There is no discussion about registration of POK people, their representation in

Parliament and demand of filling 24 vacant legislative seats kept for people of POK by

10 Lakh refugees presently in Jammu. Even there is not a single word on fate of most

unfortunate 4 lakh peoples of west Pak, refugees since 1947.

E. They claim, the report is to address sensitive issue of deep rooted feeling of

victimhood prevailing in Kashmir valley but does not explain who are responsible for

spreading of misinformation, creating mistrust between rest of Bharat and Kashmir

valley, misgovernance in valley, communalizing the society of Kashmir, spreading of

terrorism, permitting false sense of victimhood to be used by ISI and Pakistan against

Bharat, forced migration and persecution of Kashmir Hindus and Sikhs and refugees of

1947 and marginalizing of nationalist forces in valley.

F. In whole of the report not a single word of praise for security forces, accepting the role

of Army, criticizing intentions of Pakistan, but they call AFSPA Controversial, Reviewal

of Disturbed Area Act, Amendment of PSA as these laws are the cause of miseries of

most privileged people of Bharat those are valley people.

G. They tried to dilute authority of Bharat over state by giving recommendations:

1. State Govt. should send three names with opposit ions advice to

President, who would accept one of them for the post of Governor.

2. Union quota in administrative service in state is presently 50% instead

of 66% in other states. They give advice for further gradual reduction in

favour of state cadre.

3. They even recommended the use of equal denomination in Urdu for

words Governor and Chief Minister.

H. They talked that securing sense of pride, dignity of people is their first preference,

calling resolution in terms ofInsaniyat, but they do not utter a single word about 4 lakh

west Pak refugees who are most unfortunate stateless people since 1947, war

displaced persons of Jammu living a life of misery due to continuous aggressions of

Pakistan.

They even not take into consideration plight of weaker sections of the community that

are SC, ST and OBC, who are not given their due right as provided by Union

Constitution.

I. For dialogue process they recommend that after the formation of Constitutional

Committee to review the laws extended to state after 1952, Dialogue should be started

simultaneously with Hurriyat groups, later on joined by stake holders in POK and then

Pakistan also. But they does not required to have consultations with Jammu people,

Ladakh people, Shia Muslims, Gujjar Muslims and refugees of POK and west Pak of

1947, Kashmir Hindu migrant of 1990, because interlocutors does not accept them

genuine stake holders.

J. There is a question to be answered by legal luminaries of the country that by making

Article 370 permanent, whether J&K would not become a super state in our

constitution.

They call for extension of democratic, statutory, institution in J&K but working under

the confirmation of Constitution of Jammu and Kashmir.

Even they recommend fresh financial arrangement between Union and state Govt.

K. This would be ultimately reversal of process of Constitutional integration of Jammu

and Kashmir with Bharat started in 1947 and may become cause of disintegration of

J&K from Bharat and lead to further similar demands of special status from so many

other parts of the country also.
