SRINAGAR: The All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) has voiced its deep concern regarding India’s hegemonic policies, highlighting the potential for the unresolved Kashmir dispute to serve as a catalyst for nuclear tensions in the South Asian region.
This alarming statement comes as the APHC seeks to draw attention to the simmering tensions and ongoing turmoil in Indian illegally-occupied Jammu and Kashmir. The APHC’s spokesperson, in a statement issued from Srinagar, emphasized that the world, particularly the United Nations, must not overlook the critical situation in this disputed region. The consequences of ignoring the unresolved Kashmir issue, the statement suggests, could be as perilous and catastrophic as the long-standing and unresolved Palestine conflict in the Middle East.
The heart of the matter, as per the statement, lies in finding a just and equitable solution to the Kashmir dispute. This, the APHC contends, is an imperative step toward restoring peace and stability in the region. The spokesperson’s words underscore the urgency of addressing the longstanding tensions and finding a resolution that respects the rights and aspirations of the Kashmiri people.
Despite the continued use of brutal tactics and military force by India to suppress the Kashmiri freedom struggle, the APHC reports that the morale of the Kashmiri populace remains resilient. Daily incidents of martyrdom and the detention of countless Kashmiris, including religious scholars, under draconian laws have not deterred the people’s determination to secure their rights and freedom.

The statement highlights India’s actions in attempting to quell the Kashmiri uprising by employing military force. It emphasizes that despite these adversities, the people of Kashmir display remarkable bravery and steadfastness as they face these challenges head-on.
A grave concern cited by the APHC is the apparent intention of India to alter the demographic composition of the occupied territory. It asserts that India is pursuing a nefarious plan to shift the demographics by targeting the Muslim majority, potentially transforming it into a minority.
This latest statement by the APHC serves as a stark reminder of the volatile situation in Illegally Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir. It underlines the need for international attention, intervention, and a just solution to prevent the escalation of tensions and maintain regional stability.
