About To Disintegrate As A Nation British Government Still Playing Great Game
The not so United Kingdom on Tuesday said that any allegations of human rights violations in Kashmir since India revoked the Article 370 of the Constitution must be “thoroughly, promptly and transparently” investigated.
Their Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab still seething from being cold shouldered during his visit to New Delhi, told the british MPs in the House of Commons in the first parliamentary session after a long summer hibernation that he had raised the concerns with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar during a conversation on August 7 and that the UK will carefully monitor the situation in Kashmir.
He seems to be very hopeful that India will react to such barking and has failed to elaborate that how UK will monitor this …..through their vile BBC reporters or satellites ?
Even when his own Island is erupting in violence because of Brexit, this chap is trying to act like a global leader by stating “In relation to detentions, potential mistreatment and also the communications blackouts, I raised those issues with the Indian Foreign Minister. The Indian government has made clear that they are only temporaneous, as strictly required. And of course, we would want to hold them to that undertaking. All and any allegations of human rights violations are deeply concerning. They must be investigated thoroughly, promptly and transparently. “ Raab said while addressing an Oral Questions session which opened with a series of questions related to the Kashmir issue.
India has categorically told the international community in general and the british nose pokers in particular that the scrapping of Article 370 was an internal matter. And Mr Baab, India will not let you hold anything. Rather you first tell your Home Secretary to probe the attack on Indian High Commission and place the attackers in jail pronto.
While reiterating the British stance that the Kashmir dispute is a bilateral issue between India and Pakistan, the minister however stressed that the human rights concerns made it an international issue. “The issue of human rights is not just a bilateral issue for India or Pakistan or a domestic issue, it is an international issue we expect internationally recognized human rights to be complied with and respected,” he said, addressing a question from Conservative Party MP Steve Baker, who represents a large Kashmiri-origin constituency of Wycombe in south-east England.
MPs from different sides of the Commons raised a series of questions over the Kashmir issue, including demanding an end to the “blockade” in the state as well as independent observers to be deployed to the region.
Conservative MP Bob Blackman however spoke up in favour of the revocation of Article 370, which he categorised as discriminatory to women and minorities. Indian-origin Tory MP Shailesh Vara raised the related violent clashes outside the Indian High Commission in London during Indian Independence Day celebrations on August 15, highlighting that members of the Indian diaspora were attacked by “another community” in a clear reference to Pakistani-origin protesters on the day.
Raab said: “…Any violence is deplorable. It shouldn’t be conducted in this country, or anywhere else for that matter, at any individual communities. What we now need to do is try and reduce those tensions but also, on a positive side, build up confidence building measures to allow proper dialogue between the communities in Kashmir and also between India and Pakistan.
“We want to see a reduction of tensions in Kashmir, respect for internationally recognised human rights and steps from all sides to rebuild confidence.”
Yes, we Indians agree with you that there should be no human rights violations and for this we do not need any sermons from the biggest human rights violators among all nations ….Britain. The Indian Judiciary, the civil administration and the Indian military are fully capable of ensuring that there are no human rights violations of the common people anywhere in India. We would now also like to inform you that now India will soon be probing all your black deeds in british occupied Northern Ireland in depth. You need to vacate the illegally occupied Chagos Archipelago at the earliest.
Also soon we will ask you to pay compensations for all the havoc you created by your Indian Independence Act of 1947. Well time has come when India is going to nullify and revoke that very act. It will be replaced by an Act of Declaration of Independence and it will nullify that murderous Radcliffe line.
