Shah terms UN resolution on right to self-determination of nations as encouraging ‘Pakistan’s support to resolution will encourage freedom fighting people of world’ =>Terming the resolution passed in General Assembly of United Nations regarding the right to self-determination of nations and Pakistan’s support for it as “encouraging and in favour of subjugated nations of world”, Hurriyat Conference Jammu Kashmir (HCJK) leader and Democratic Freedom Party chairman Shabir Ahmad Shah Saturday said the step will pave way for justice to freedom fighting people of the world. “Pakistan’s support to the resolution will encourage the freedom fighting people of the world and it is surely a victory for thosepeople particularly for the nation of Jammuand Kashmir who are struggling for their birth right of self-determination,” Shah in a statement issued to press said. He said New Delhi has to revere and acknowledge this resolution sooner or later and has to allow the people of Jammu and Kashmir decide their right of self-determination. “UN should keep a vigil over its member nations as to how they treat their subjects in their respective domains. UN should also initiate steps to implement these resolutions on ground,” he said. Applauding the role of Pakistan Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif with regards toKashmir issue, Shah said, “The Pak premierhas upheld the facts based on truth and reality.” He also lauded the statement of Nawaz Sharif that non-serious approach towards the Kashmir issue will only pave way for destruction in the subcontinent as “the issue is a bone of contention between two nuclear neighboring nations India and Pakistan.” Shah urged India to shun its ‘stubbornness’ and respond positively to Sharif’s call for dialogue to resolve the Kashmir issue. “Theright of self-determination is the birth right of nations which is mentioned in the UN charter. The people of Jammu and Kashmir are fighting for this right from last 67 years for which so many resolutions have been passed in the security council of UN but only due to India’s stubborn attitude, the issue continues to linger.” He said though UN played a crucial role in bringing independence to many nations like South Sudan, East Timor, since its inception, ‘but the institution has failed withregards to one of the sensitive issues of subcontinent Kashmir issue.’ “Jammu and Kashmir had never been the part of India which has forcibly occupied the territory. This issue has forced both its stakeholders – India and Pakistan to spend major portion of budget in their in defense rather than focusing on education, poverty and development of their respective nations.”Shah once again expressed his heartfelt sympathy and solidarity with the people of Pakistan over the unfortunate Peshawar tragedy and said we equally share this hour of grief. He appealed the people of Pakistan to exhibit patience and tackle the aftermath situation with utmost care.(KNS)
